Off-the-Beaten-Path Adventure Travel

At the root of Eleven’s identity is the belief that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice the comforts of home in order to experience some of the world’s most beautiful scenery and incredible adventures. Our team has scoured the globe for undiscovered corners of the world’s most pristine destinations, with a strong connection to both community and landscape. Even our most off-thegrid properties are custom designed with the type of well-appointed amenities and adrenaline-pumping adventures that you would come to expect from an Eleven lodge.

Custom Tailored, All-Inclusive Experiences

We believe that your trip should be about you. That means that no trip is ever the same, unless you want it to be. Even before you arrive, our Experience Managers will help plan every detail of your dream itinerary, from preferred terrain to favorite flavors. Most of our stays are largely inclusive, meaning that your professional guides, outdoor activities, most meals, house alcohol, and local transportation are included.

Small Group Specialists

We overdeliver on curating moments that are entirely customized to delight your small group, from the adventures you’ll embark on to the spaces you’ll live in. Our intimate and freestanding lodges welcome you as family into your new home away from home, where breakfasts are tailored to your appetite, experiences are fully driven by your inclinations, and the crowd consists of no one but you and your group.

No Down Days

Unlike other resorts and guide operations, we don’t acknowledge “down days” or “weather days.” There are no rain checks. We are always ready to improvise and be creative. If we can’t ski, we’ll surf. If we can’t fish, we’ll go mountain biking with a riverside gourmet lunch. You came to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and that’s what you’ll get.

Remote

and Private at our Core

With Eleven, there are no lines, no waits, no traffic, and certainly no picked-over buffets. We take you to remote areas brimming with the region’s authentic character, not the region’s tourist traps. Our experiences pull you off the grid and into the great outdoors alongside our hand-picked guides who possess unmatched local knowledge. Untouched powder runs, secluded stretches of river, chef-prepared riverside après, and secret singletrack define an Eleven adventure.

Something for Everyone

No matter your experience level or interests, we can customize the perfect day, each day, for every member of your group. Half of your group can be carving lines through fresh snow while the others watch and enjoy après from our on-mountain chalet. Or we’ll guide the anglers of the group out on the water while the rest enjoy instructed yoga, finishing the day together at a beautiful outdoor lunch. Whatever your tastes may be, Eleven’s team is fully equipped to flawlessly execute your idea of the perfect day.

THE ELEVEN EXPERIENCE

The Eleven Experience from Start to Finish

From the inception of each of our experiences, our development team sets the tone, blending the art of well-appointed accommodations with the thrill of outdoor pursuits. They discover each location, envision every adventure, and then design, build and ultimately bring to life the experience-enhancing purpose that all of our properties and locations offer.

Local Guides with Infectious Spirit and Unrivaled Know-How

At each destination, Eleven delivers the highest tier of guided adventures. Our highly trained guide teams know every slope and riffle within their environments and take pride in dousing you in insider tips. In a single day, you can find yourself summiting a high peak, mountain biking world-renowned singletrack, and whitewater rafting a local river. But don’t count on them just to lead the way, their spirited personalities and passion for where they work and play will leave you with real connections to the people and places you’ve come to cherish.

Fully Customized Experience Management

We have created a team of specialists unique to each operation that is trained to exceed your expectations every step of the way. With the guidance of the Experience Team, you will design your own itinerary, combining each of the elements that excite you most, and ultimately bringing your vision of the ideal trip to life.

Unique and Authentic Destinations

At Eleven, we pride ourselves on seeking out the world’s most stunning destinations that are secluded from any hustle and bustle. Our lodges, chalets, and beach houses are miles from the main road—in a historic farming village high along the French-Italian border, on a rugged river in Patagonia, and in other sublime locations away from the crowd and amidst the genuine personality of the region.

THE TEAM

Guides

At the core of every Eleven Experience lies our Guide Team. This diverse group of highcaliber outdoor adventure specialists is a big reason you’ll come back for more. Their mission is to evaluate your goals, assess your comfort levels, and then customize your adventure to provide that “best-dayever” experience. The guides’ enthusiasm for their local surroundings is contagious. It’s what sets Eleven apart from any other company in the industry. If getting after it and challenging the limits of your comfort zone excites you, then our team will safely lead you on a life-changing adventure. Our crew includes a lively cast of characters from around the world. Many of our guides maintain high-level guiding and medical certifications including IFMGA, AMGA, AIARE, WFR, and EMT.

Experience Team

The team. The glue. The ones in the field. The workshop, the kitchen, the cockpits. The ones orchestrating the best day ever. The mission is to stoke the fire, keep the beer bucket full, and provide ninja-style hospitality by using our Colorado clairvoyance. Always eleven steps ahead, the Experience Team thinks of everything before you’ve even packed your bags.

Local Flavor

The unwavering passion for culture and place that our local team members bring to your experience is unparalleled. From immersing you in regional customs and exchanging language tips, to serving local favorites like Génépi liqueur and Chilean Empanadas, the team members create a powerful sense of place that is not easily forgotten. At the end of the day we hope you’ll consider our team members treasured friends sprinkled around the globe.

Turn It Up to Eleven

When someone asks you what you thought about your Eleven Experience, we bet you’ll be hard pressed not to respond, “It was an eleven out of ten.” Each of our teams set the bar high, and then raise it a bit more. We strive to enhance each moment with thoughtful intricacies, like oxygen-infused air conditioning for our high-altitude lodges and customized powder skis for our alpine destinations. Unexpected displays of our team’s attention to detail, creative flair, and shared appreciation for the outdoors will mark your time with us as truly out of this world, and totally off the charts.

CRESTED BUTTE

COLORADO

Welcome to an idyllic, end-of-theroad hideaway in the heart of the Elk Mountains. This little town with lots of spirit is an adventure enthusiast’s dream, providing unmatched access to outdoor pursuits of all kinds. Summers here are defined by adventures on wildflowerlined singletrack and the area’s rushing rivers. Come winter, skiing takes center stage, while visitors and locals alike hit the slopes to experience the Gunnison Valley’s bountiful terrain. Aptly named Colorado’s Last Great Ski Town, Crested Butte is full of history, adventure, and local flavor. No matter what time of year you visit, an experience here will stay with you long after you leave.

ELEVEN SCARP RIDGE LODGE

Authentic mountain town setting and adventures

Located in downtown Crested Butte and steeped in local history, Scarp Ridge Lodge was formerly the Croatian Hall, where miners would gather for drinking and dancing during the coal mining heyday. Now, the lodge’s prime location provides easy access to the outdoors and is within a short walking distance of the town’s shopping, bars, and restaurants.

The historic lodge still has its Wild West facade, but the interiors have been transformed with reclaimed iron from the old mills in town and generous amenities, like an indoor saltwater pool and rooftop hot tub. The open-plan lodge purposefully lives like a home, and a private bar allows guests to enjoy chef-prepared après

without leaving the property. The guest-controlled entertainment system is set to music preferences, while coffee and a pre-heated sauna are prep for tackling the trails every morning.

Each of the property’s six guest rooms is slightly different, with a mix of elegant and rustic touches, including earth-toned furnishings, jute rugs, and exposed wood beams. The seven-bed bunkroom — modeled after the board game Chutes and Ladders — is every kid’s dream. To top it off, an oxygen-enriched air system can be activated by the flip of a switch to help fight the effect of high altitude, ensuring a good night’s sleep.

ELEVEN SOPRIS HOUSE

Historical, après-ready perfection

Located next door to Scarp Ridge Lodge, Sopris House is full of history and character, just like the town of Crested Butte. The original 1882 building infamously became the Spritzer Bar, a saloon bought by Martin Spritzer in 1924 and operated by Slovenian immigrants. The intimate, four-bedroom home still has its original tin ceiling and mountain town touches like a massive buffalo head in the dining room and eclectic pieces of art. A large private courtyard is where guests unwind after the day’s adventures, be it in the copper hot tub, outdoor sauna, or around the fire pit. The gem of the house is the Sopris Bar, a private, wood-paneled bar

ELEVEN EXPERIENCE LODGE

that tempts guests to stay up late with its vintage jukebox, dart board, pool table and old-school shot ski.

If you need an outdoor fix, Crested Butte is the place to get it. Considered a mountain biking mecca, the area boasts the largest singletrack system in the United States, and guests can bike or hike many of the area’s trails straight from Sopris House’s front door. In the winter, head to the snow-covered Elk Mountains to cat ski over 1,000 acres of exclusive backcountry terrain at nearby Irwin.

THE SINGLETRACK EXPERIENCE

Mile for mile, trail for trail, Crested Butte, Colorado ranks amongst the world’s top mountain biking destinations. Considered to be one of the birthplaces of mountain biking, Crested Butte’s pedigree runs deep. From May through October riders can explore 750+ miles of singletrack. Endless trails mean unlimited options for mileage, elevation, and technical (or mellower) combinations. You’ll find terrain for all abilities, from flowy singletrack through stunning wildflower meadows to rowdy descents through pine forests in the high alpine. Crested Butte’s bike-friendly vibe and Eleven’s knowledgeable guides ensure an unparalleled experience in this mountain bike mecca.

ADVENTURE INFRASTRUCTURE

All of our properties are outfitted with equipment, vehicles, and supporting structures that have been specifically curated or designed for each location.

Vehicles TRACKED SNOWCATS

Our ten passenger Tucker and The F550 snowcats take winter transportation to the next level. Complete with flat screen TVs, leather seats, and stocked with refreshments, the Tucker and The F550 are the epitome of both form and function. Each day during our winter season, conditions permitting, one of our tracked vehicles will transport guests from their accommodations at Scarp Ridge Lodge or Sopris House to the backcountry powder playground of Irwin, Colorado. Located just 13 miles west of the town of Crested Butte, Irwin is a remote oasis reachable only by snowcat or snowmobile, largely ensuring our guests have its bountiful terrain all to themselves.

Equipment ADVENTURE GEAR

At Scarp Ridge Lodge and Sopris House, we have all of the necessary equipment for a day in the mountains or on the river, including a fleet of custom powder skis specifically designed for our cat skiing tenure at Irwin, avalanche safety gear, powder snowboards and splitboards, SUPs, rafts, and inflatable kayaks.

Outposts

IRWIN CAT BARN & MOVIE CABIN

The Cat Barn is the primary building at the Irwin base area, and is one of the warming houses for skiers experiencing Irwin. While Irwin’s fleet of snowcats lives in the rear of the building, the spacious guest area features plush couches, a long dining table, and a roaring fire for large groups to gather and celebrate their day. A full bar featuring Irwin Brewing Co beer on draft is complemented by games to choose from, and a full live band loft beckons the musically inclined to rock out with no decibel limit. Irwin’s Movie Cabin epitomizes high-mountain coziness, thawing out skiers while they break from chasing deep powder. So named because it was built as a set for a Disney movie, the Movie Cabin serves as a comfortable base to return to during a day spent lapping Irwin’s powdery terrain.

Outposts

CRESTED BUTTE LOFT

The Crested Butte Loft is on the Axtel building’s third floor, located at the base area of Crested Butte Mountain Resort and directly across from the two primary chairlifts. Scarp Ridge Lodge guests have priority access to this two-bedroom, two-bathroom unit, which includes balcony views of Mt. Crested Butte, Whetstone Mountain and Axtel Peak, as well as unrivaled proximity to resort skiing. Relax in mountain comfort with a state-of-the-art kitchen, dining area and bar, two sitting areas, game room with foosball and dartboard, and a kid’s playroom loft.

Irwin Explained

BY JAY WHITACRE,

Colorado Guide Operation Manager

The immense beauty and sheer wonder of cat skiing at Irwin is an experience not to be missed. As someone who has explored the world on skis, I can truly attest that this slice of Colorado’s Elk Mountains is something special. For those of you who have not yet experienced a day out on the cat with us, I’m conducting a little Irwin 101 here. Step into my office.

Irwin, Colorado is located about 13 miles west of the town of Crested Butte, where Eleven’s Scarp Ridge Lodge and Sopris House are located. It is here

that Eleven chose to base its cat skiing operation. And with good reason—at over 10,000 feet above sea level, this ski terrain is situated in the “snow shadow” of the Ruby range, which means it is orographically (the study of mountain systems) favored to receive copious amounts of snow from December through April. Here, we are spoiled by light, low density powder thanks to our high altitude and prime location. Irwin’s geography has gained it the well-earned reputation for averaging nearly 450 inches of snow a season—often twice

that of the town of Crested Butte. Eleven has exclusive access to 1,000+ acres at Irwin and two on-mountain outposts, the Cat Barn and the Movie Cabin, where guests enjoy lunch and après. Simply put, for skiers of all ability levels, this is the crème de la crème. Fantastic snow, exclusive use, private groups, delicious food, premium accommodations, and of course, zero lift lines.

While it’s no secret that Irwin boasts an impressive snowpack record, this is not the only draw that entices both hardcharging skiers and intermediate cruisers

to the area’s abundant terrain. Our unique program is highly customizable, and we can truly cater each experience to meet your individual expectations. This is YOUR trip with YOUR friends. You will not interact with any other groups during your ski day. Snowcats will not be mixed, so you will only share space with those in your own private group. Each morning, our Tucker snowcat will pick you up at Scarp Ridge Lodge or Sopris House to deliver you to the powder playground that is Irwin, Colorado.

On to the terrain. Here, we’ve got it all—from wide open powder-filled bowls to tight trees and steep chutes. We usually start the day with a mellow run like “Dan’s Delight” or “Barkmarker Glades” so that everyone can get their ski legs back. There are many approachable, low angle runs for your crew to warm up on or spend the entire day exploring. Then, depending on your group’s level, we will pick it up a notch and head over to something a little steeper on Westwall. As we get comfortable, we may even hit the Upper Westwall, with lines like

“Far Out” or “Thorton’s Rock.” Hard chargers can take on the gnarlier lines in the Upper Upper Westwall such as “Field of Screams” or “Ski Heroes.” When conditions are right, stepping into the New World and skiing the “Needle” or “Thread” is another possibility. If getting air is your thing, we’ve got drops for days. Our guides are expert powder chasers and will have you skiing untouched lines all day long.

Despite the countless hours I have spent skiing, conducting avalanche mitigation, and guiding guests at Irwin, putting this place into words is something that continues to challenge me. When it comes down to it, Irwin is not just a place, it’s an experience. You can feel its power in the moments of silence on the top of Scarp Ridge after the cat has pulled away and before you begin your first descent of the day; in the ear-to-ear smiles and shouts of pure joy as your crew enters the white room; and in the clink of a glass to toast another unforgettable day on the slopes. Here, ‘Best Day Ever’ is not an exaggeration, it is a common refrain.

Blue sky, emerald green pine trees, and granite cliffs frame all of your adventures at Taylor River Lodge.

Fishing is at the heart of the summer experience. Anglers have no shortage of options, from an on-property stocked trout pond and a mile stretch of semi-private river just steps from the cabins, to float trips down the nearby Gunnison River. The surrounding mountains offer rugged singletrack and scenic hiking trails, and the on-site rock climbing wall, archery and hatchet throwing area will make you nostalgic for your Scout days. Come winter, a fresh blanket of snow covers the Taylor Canyon, and the lodge is transformed into a tranquil winter oasis. The lodge’s secluded and wild location offers a prime backdrop for outdoor adventures of all types.

Nature is Nurture

Wellness in the Outdoors

BY CAITH NORTON, Wellness Program Manager

When we get close to nature something magical happens. Nature feeds us, sustains us, and lifts our spirits. Think of the last time you walked outside after a big snow on a crisp, sunny day and felt the sharp inhale of your breath; saw the sun glinting off each crystal in a snowflake; experienced the peaceful quiet of snow falling; or had snow melting on your outstretched tongue. Do you remember how alive, clear and excited you felt?!

Ecotherapy, a growing scientific field which uses nature-based exercises to address both mental and physical health, has shown a strong connection between time spent in nature and reduced stress, anxiety, and depression. It’s not clear exactly why outdoor excursions have such a positive mental effect, yet in a 2015 study researchers compared the brain activity of healthy people after they walked for 90 minutes in either a

natural setting or an urban one. They found that those who did the nature walk, as opposed to the urban walk, had lower activity in the prefrontal cortex, the area of the brain that is active during rumination. At Eleven, we incorporate ecotherapy into the guest experience in a variety of ways with Eleven Life. Eleven Life is Eleven’s unique wellness program, centered on place-based wellness experiences that connect our guests

to the distinct natural environments of each Eleven property worldwide. Our seasoned teams curate customized wellness pairings, choosing from an array of daily activity adventures, spa therapies, and culinary experiences to highlight the unique features of the particular property culture.

Immersing oneself in nature is beneficial for both mental fortitude and physical vitality. Eleven Life is

designed to bring our guests outside in a meaningful way so that they can experience the myriad of benefits of spending time surrounded by nature. At Eleven, not only do we guide our guests to have the “best day ever,” but we also encourage our guests to slow down and experience the natural world using all their senses.

LE MIROIR

FRANCE

We’ve discovered a hidden corner of the French Alps, where the cows still get milked in their pastures and the trails wind past centuries-old churches and trapped-in-time hamlets. The Savoie, a nook of France bordering Switzerland to the north and Italy to the east, feels like the Rocky Mountains on steroids, infused with European charm. Surrounded by world-class ski resorts, this region is the ultimate alpine playground. Our local guides know every trail and peak, not to mention the best cafes and picnic spots. By day, choose your own adventure, from heli-skiing in the winter to mountain biking in the summer. By night, watch the stars rise over the nearby peaks from the terrace with a glass of fine French wine in hand.

ELEVEN CHALET PELERIN

The epicenter of alpine adventure

Located in the epicenter of alpine adventure, Chalet Pelerin provides 180-degree views of the surrounding Tarentaise Valley, home of world-class ski resorts including Val d’Isere and Tignes. King guest rooms bring the outdoors in, with large windows and balconies, while an open-plan living area frames the summit of Mont Pourri. Complete with an indoor freshwater swimming pool, outdoor hot tub, and Finnish sauna and steam room, Chalet Pelerin’s wellness facilities offer a serene space to relax and unwind after a day spent exploring the Alps. The chalet’s five guest suites are named after iconic French mountains, and the rustic yet comfortable design reflects local traditions.

LE CROT ALPAGE

Le Crot Alpage is a historic farmhouse accessible only by foot, bike, snowshoe, or ski from Chalet Pelerin and Chalet Hibou. Spending an evening here is like being transported back in time, to an age before electricity, screens, and the distractions of modern technology. Bask under the night sky on chairs covered with sheepskin throws around a roaring fire outside the hut. Enjoy a cocktail and take in the pristine views before entering the Alpage, softly glowing with candlelight. Indulge in fondue by the fireplace before diving into a locally inspired, chef-prepared meal paired with some of the area’s finest French wine. The pleasant walk back to the chalet is a prime opportunity for stargazing and continued camaraderie with loved ones.

Making Génépi

A Story from Ages Past

BY JEAN-NOEL GAIDET Head Guide, France

Jean Noel Gaidet is Eleven’s lead guide in France. He’s also a professional French ski instructor and has guided clients throughout France and Italy. Jean Noel’s family has been living in the town of Le Miroir in Sainte Foy for more than six generations, so he knows every corner of the valley. His specialties are off-piste skiing, heli-skiing, backcountry skiing, hiking, mountaineering, rock climbing, and mountain biking. Making Génépi is a longstanding tradition in Jean Noel’s family. Each August, he returns to the mountains to forage for this special flower to make his batch for the upcoming winter to share with friends, family, and Eleven guests at Chalet Pelerin and Chalet Hibou.

“ IT IS A FANTASTIC GENERAL HEALTH TONIC, PROMOTING DIGESTION AND SUPPORTING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM WHILE FIGHTING FATIGUE.

Here I am, I trudge on a rocky ridgeline at an altitude of 2,500 meters by the Italian border, in my secret sector. It is August, the Génépi flower is in full bloom. Here in the mountains, I forage for the flowers and pick what I can find. Génépi belongs to the Armoises family, the same family as the famous Absinthe. There are five main varieties of Génépi, but Glacier Génépi (“Artemisia glacialis”) is the variety most commonly used in the distillation of the Génépi digestif.

Before becoming a well-known digestif in our mountains, the origin of Génépi liqueur dates back to the Middle Ages, when it was originally used in the form of an infusion to heal gastric problems. The Génépi plant has always been appreciated for its medical benefits and virtues. It is a fantastic general

health tonic, promoting digestion and supporting the immune system while fighting fatigue. This is why the Génépi digestif is particularly valuable during the winter. Each summer, I harvest the Génépi flower from high in the mountains in order to make my batch for the next winter season.

For many years, the manufacture of Génépi liqueur remained artisanal and prepared by the mountain people, like me. It was not until much later that Génépi spread, thanks to the production of monks, like many other liqueurs. During the 19th century, Génépi liqueur became commercial with the appearance of distilleries in the mountains of the Alps, and more specifically, in Savoie, where this plant is found. The Génépi liqueur has

become famous and emblematic of the French Alps.

The composition of Génépi is simple. To make my homemade Génépi liqueur, I combine Génépi flowers, a neutral alcohol, and sugar. To make this liquor, I macerate 40 sprigs of the Génépi plant in one liter of alcohol at 90 ° C for 40 days. Then I add the sugar syrup to reduce the alcohol level to 45 °C. I can then taste it and enjoy it throughout the winter. I usually serve it after a big meal or I bring it with me in a flask while skiing to celebrate a good ski day with friends and clients, either on the mountain or in the warmth of a mountain refuge.

Now it’s up to you to come and share a glass of the Génépi liqueur with me one day! à votre santé!

The Legend of the Elf Hill

At Deplar Farm

BY HAUKUR ÁSTVALDSSON, Long-time local and farmer

In Iceland, trolls, fairies, elves, and magic spells are more than tall tales. These myths are weaved into Icelandic culture, and the majority of people in Iceland believe in their existence. The people of Iceland often go to great lengths in order to avoid disturbing these spirits, and construction projects have been known to be either rerouted or canceled if they have reason to believe they will interfere with the enchanted home of an elf or fairy.

Deplar Farm, converted from a sheep farm on the remote Troll Peninsula of northern Iceland, is not immune to the

presence of this spirit world. One of the few hills that remain near Deplar Farm is called Álfhóll (Elf Hill). On the north side of this hill, there is a steep slope that locals call Álagabrekka (Spell-Cast Slope). As the story goes, a spell has been placed on this hill — if the enchanted hill is disturbed in any way, the farmer at Deplar will suffer a setback with his crops or his livestock.

The locals on the Troll Peninsula take this spell quite seriously. A local farmer, Haukur Ástvaldsson, remembers troubling instances from his youth which he attributes to the spell of Elf Hill. He

recounts the tale from his youth for which he was seriously reprimanded.

“I was 10 years old at the time and my brothers and I had acquired an oil stove that had outlived its usefulness. One day, we decided to take the stove up the hill, fill it with dry grass, and set it on fire. This resulted in a great flare-up that ignited the vegetation and caused an impressive blaze that burned on the slope. The next morning, after a severe scolding from our father, we made the unfortunate discovery that our most prized lamb on the farm had perished

on the mountain. There were no clues as to what had caused its demise and there were no burn marks to indicate that he had been caught in the blaze. There is no other explanation for why this happened except for the disturbance we had caused on Elf Hill the day before.”

Even today, out of respect for and in acknowledgment of the local lore, Deplar Farm has an understanding with the villagers that they will not cause disturbance to Álfhóll or Álagabrekka and to this day, no structure has ever been built on either of these hills.

“

THE LOCALS ON THE TROLL PENINSULA TAKE THIS SPELL QUITE SERIOUSLY.

HARBOUR ISLAND

THE BAHAMAS

There are many special places in the Bahamas, but none more so than Harbour Island. Located just off the northeast tip of Eleuthera, the island’s pink sand beach is surrounded by turquoise waters that are home to vibrant coral reefs perfect for diving or snorkeling, and flats teeming with bonefish and barracuda. The island itself is famous for its colonial style architecture, pastel-painted houses, and pink bougainvillea. The Bahamian culture is just as rich as the island’s natural beauty, so after a day spent cliff jumping into sapphire blue water or exploring the surrounding islands on our 35-foot Scorpion RIB Boat, venture into town to enjoy live music and world-class restaurants. Fair warning, the Bahamian lifestyle is contagious — one experience here will leave you longing to come back year after year.

Junkanoo

A Celebration of Bahamian Culture

BY ERNEST MCPHEE, Bahama House Lodge Manager

Vibrant costumes, intoxicating musical beats, traditional dance, and endless amounts of fun fill the streets as this joyous Bahamian bash begins. Unlike any other festival in the world, Junkanoo is a true celebration of Bahamian culture. Documented in the Bahamas for over 200 years, it is celebrated on Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve—and, one could argue, unofficially on many Saturdays throughout the year. The build-up to Junkanoo is intense. Locals put months of careful planning into their costumes, dance rehearsals, and music routines, culminating in a day of celebration

filled with fervent joy as the whole country joins together to partake in the festivities.

This celebration of the imagination fuses all aspects of the arts. Music is one of the key components at Junkanoo, as people dance through the streets to the infectious beats of drums, horns, cowbells, and whistles. The dances complement the music, as established dance groups boogie in tandem with people on the street. The costumes add to the festive atmosphere and fill the streets with a kaleidoscope of colors. Cardboard is typically used as the building material

for these intricately designed costumes, which are then decked out in feathers, beads, and colorful paints, resulting in extraordinary works of art.

The primary location for the festival is held on the island of Nassau, but celebrations occur all over the islands, including on Harbour Island. As the event rolls down Bay Street about 100 yards from Bahama House, one of our favorite spots to listen to the festivities is on our very own 1800 deck. Grab a glass of our famous Goombay Smash and allow yourself to get lost in the beauty and excitement of the Junkanoo Festival.

PATAGONIA

CHILE

This remote corner of Chilean Patagonia, set under the awe-inspiring Andes mountains, will enthrall and enchant even the most discerning of travelers. Dramatic 8,000-foot peaks jut out of the lush jungle below to create a formidable skyline, which beckons hard-charging heli-skiers to tackle its untracked terrain. If sought out, first descents can be attained in this largely unexplored zone, with heli-ski runs averaging 1,800 vertical feet. These high alpine glaciers pour into gin-clear rivers filled with the brown and rainbow trophy trout for which this area is known. Adventure is what traveling in Patagonia is all about, and there’s nowhere better to experience it than at Rio Palena Lodge.

Patagonian Flora & Fauna

BY NANO ABARCA, Naturalist and Guide

A Chilean fishing guide since 1980, Fernando “Nano” Abarca began his career guiding in the Lakes District in northern Patagonia and later in Aysen in southern Patagonia. He is also a yoga instructor and a lover of forests and nature in general. Nano’s passion for fishing began at eight years old, when he caught an 8-pound rainbow trout while fishing with his dad—an event that changed his life forever.

Rio Palena Lodge is located in a Valdivian temperate forest. This ecoregion is characterized by rainy weather and evergreen forests that are home to unique flora and fauna. This rainforest at the end of the world covers more than 500 miles north to south.

The flora in this region is diverse — from ferns and orchids to ancient trees such as the Alerce that can live more than 2,000 years. There are a number of fascinating tree species in this primordial part of the world. The Ulmo Tree blooms every February, and from its flowers, the local bees create the distinctly delicious

“Ulmo honey.” The Canelo Tree is sacred to the native Mapuche people because of its strong medicinal properties. Other large, important trees include the Coihue and Mañio. The first is home to the big beetle, Cantaria, who is an important food source for trout. The second is a native pine known for its excellent building quality.

Wildlife in the rainforest is relatively scarce, but at the top of the food chain are the puma and the fox. The Pudu (the smallest deer in the world) and Huemul Deer are very shy and difficult to spot. The birds are abundant and diverse,

from the smaller-sized Chucao Tapaculo and Wed Wed and the medium-sized Kingfisher and Caiquen, to the bigger birds like the Condor and the Eagle. It is possible to encounter all of these species at Rio Palena Lodge.

In our home waters, you can catch rainbow, brown, and brook trout throughout the whole season. If you’re lucky, you may even catch all three in one day for the Patagonian version of the elusive Grand Slam. However you prefer to explore the grandeur of Patagonia’s great outdoors, Rio Palena Lodge is the perfect launch pad.

Featured Adventure

WALK AND STALK

The guides meet daily to determine the best water for each angler, so every day revolves around matching current conditions to your preferences. You could spend one day in a farmland valley casting near grazing sheep, the next in the foothills fishing more pools and rapids, then the next on the wilder stretches of the headwater streams with bigger boulders and more river crossings. You’ll have a riverside lunch with your guides, then return to the lodge for après, a soak in the hot tub, and a chef-prepared dinner.

MARIANNE BURCHELL, Eleven New Zealand Financial Operations Manager

Māori culture, traditions, and myths are an integral part of Aotearoa history and have shaped many aspects of modernday New Zealand’s identity. You can see influences in the arts, food, language, and even the imaginative tales used to explain the phenomena of the natural world.

Māori have a strong spiritual bond to land and water, and Māori legends, pūrākau, are central to their understanding of the world and its creation. The discovery of the North and South Islands is a fascinating and well-known legend. Māui, a mischievous character, secretly joined his brothers’ fishing excursion by hiding in the hull of his brothers’ canoe, waka. Once they were far out to sea, Māui revealed himself and threw out his line. He immediately had a bite and hauled in a giant fish which would become the North Island of New Zealand, known as Te Ika-aMāui. His waka became the South Island of New Zealand, known as Te Waka a Māui, which was anchored by Rakiura, or Stewart Island. These are the three main islands that make up Aotearoa.

In the arts, the iconic and traditional Māori dance, the Haka, is famous around the world. It is performed before sports events, weddings, tangis/ funerals, celebrations, and gatherings.

The Māori legend describing the origin of the haka paints it as a celebration of life. As legend has it, Tane-rore, the son of Tama-nui-te-ra, the sun god, and his wife Hine-raumati, who embodies summer, would dance for his mother, causing the air to quiver, and this light, rapid movement was the foundation of all hakas.

And, oh, the food! In addition to the fresh seafood, delicious lamb, meat pies, and yummy hokey pokey ice cream, the Māori hāngī is a centuries-old, traditional style of cooking still commonly seen today. Hāngī means “earth oven,” and traditionally, a large hole is dug in the ground with hot stones placed at the bottom of the hole. Foods such as fish, pork, lamb, and kumara are wrapped in flax leaf, placed on top, and then covered with a wet cloth and a layer of dirt. The food is then cooked for hours and the result is a very delicious, tender meal infused with smoke and earthy flavors.

So, next time you visit New Zealand, embrace the culture and practice a traditional greeting known as a hongi, where two people press their noses to each other and inhale one another’s breath. The breath is considered to have come directly from the gods. If this is out of your comfort zone, saying “Kia ora” will also do the trick.

Leaving Your Mark on Kingfisher

BY MATT DEVLIN, Kingfisher Director of Operations

Kingfisher has been taking my breath away since 2013. Big snow, big mountains, and big smiles never fail to mark a day exploring this magical place. To date, we’ve named about 250 runs, and still have about that many left to discover. The runs are not just legendary for their deep snowpack and massive old-growth cedars, but they’re also alive with the stories of those who skied them first. When a guest skis a first descent, they get the privilege of naming the run, which lives into eternity at Kingfisher.

My first time skiing Kingfisher resulted in such a story. It was our first day with guests, and, in true BC fashion, it dumped

80cm the night before. The terrain was brand new for us at that point, so when we spotted an open meadow deep in the Monashees that seemed promising, we landed. Our guests were first-time heli skiers, and to say we were stoked would be the understatement of the year. Much to our surprise, the “open meadow” we’d cautiously selected suddenly steepened and thickened with trees, gracing us with an unexpected thrill complete with blower pow, zero wind, and a totally bottomless base. I paused to peek up at my crew, but could only make out billows of powder emitting wild giggles and shouts—a telltale sign of a bunch of guests having the

best day ever. Snow plastered to their grins confirmed my suspicions as they met me, and it wasn’t long before we dubbed the run “Hyena Hills” to commemorate the boisterous noise of that first descent, which turned out to be 1,800 vertical feet of steep open trees.

Not surprisingly, it’s very common for returning guests to absolutely insist on revisiting “their” run. One mom of a particular local family named her first heli-skiing run “Bucket List” at the ripe age of 76 years young. As she swore, she’s since returned to relive that glorious first descent, a wide open chute about 35 degrees and 2,000 vertical feet. Other

guest-named classics are Pillow Talk, Spring Break (my favorite!), Sin City, and Cha Ching, each with an equally as memorable story behind it. Sure, Kingfisher is blessed to be smackdab in the middle of the snowbelt and receives a typical 3–5 meters of snow by midwinter, but it’s these personal stories that make the tenure truly irreplaceable. And since there’s tons left to name plus new terrain opened yearly, there’s a good chance you’ll get to name a first descent, making your mark on Kingfisher forever and paving the way for others to experience more of the rush we’re all seeking on our 300,000-acre playground.
