Zipping around in Whistler & Bear Necessities!

IThe scenery on the drive up to Whistler was beautiful although most of the passengers on the coach used the 2 hours to catch up on some sleep!

For the first time in the tour we encountered poor weather and rain. The majority of the group chose to go on a zip trek around the mountain which turned out to be a thrilling way to spend 2 hours; it was certainly not spoilt by the inclement weather.



 There were some nervous faces before the first zip wire....



Rebecca managed a smile....




We have some great video clips but unfortunately I was unable to attach these successfully to the blog.

In the meantime, Ellie and Lucy alerted Mrs Dickinson to a bear grazing at the base of Whistler mountain....


.......most of the group were in the right place to have a viewing....except Miss Jones who was zip wiring!!

Mrs Miller and Miss Jones were to put that right by booking themselves on an early morning (6am start) bear hunt tour.......how lucky to have a close viewing of a mummy and baby bear. The sighting came in extra time of the tour....another cloud and silver lining moment!




We watched baby bear climb the tree and find a prime vantage point....


....the icing on the cake near the end of a wonderful tour!


Happy Bear Bloggers!!
