Enjoy this stunning mountain town.

In the picturesque setting of Canada’s Coast Mountains, the First Nations people have come together to establish the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre. This facility showcases unique customs, art, and music and provides opportunities for local youth to train in the tourism industry. As a non-profit organization, the centre relies on visitors to help fund their ongoing programs, meaning everyone who comes here helps make this important work possible.

Join an Indigenous tour guide at the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre on an interpretive walk through the surrounding forest. Learn how the Indigenous ancestors lived while learning about plant species used for food and medicine. After, participate in a medicine bag making activity, using traditional materials like buckskin, beads and hide.

Settle in and scan the scenery as you travel from the ferry terminal to the hotel in Sequim, and then to Olympic National Park.

Drive into Olympic National Park and stop at the visitor centre at the base of Hurricane Ridge. Then, explore the road, stop at various viewpoints, and then go for a short walk along one of the nearby trails. This easy paved trail offers views of Port Angeles and the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

Settle in and scan the scenery from the comfort of your private vehicle. Travel from Sequim to Port Angeles to meet your local guide for the day, explore Olympic National Park, and then drive back to Port Angeles for free time before reaching Sequim in the late evening.

Begin the tour of Olympic National Park in the morning with a local guide. Start in the Sol Duc Valley area with a visit to the Hot Spring Resort. Here, there will be two options for members of the group to consider. You can opt to swim in the hot springs (this will require purchasing a day pass), or you can enjoy a guide-led hike to Sol Duc Falls which is about two miles roundtrip. In the early afternoon, the group will arrive at the Lake Crescent Lodge where they can take time to enjoy the area. Choose to rent a kayak or canoe to get out onto the lake, enjoy the Lodge’s property and nearby walking trails, or set off on a guided hike to the beautiful Marymere Falls which is about two miles roundtrip. Finish your time in the park with a drive to the Elwha River for a short, easy walk along the river to Madisson Falls and back.

Enjoy some free time this evening to explore Port Angeles on your own. This seaside-meets-mountain town has plenty of great food and drink options as well as a deep history, rather bewitching beauty, and it's the gateway to the Olympic Peninsula.

Bask in a slow, free morning to get to know Sequim. Options you can partake in include, lavender farms or walks along nature trails.

Portland is also known for its great, many breweries and your CEO could suggest some options for tastings after the walk.

This morning in Portland, the choice is yours. You can opt to rent a bike on your own or join guided tour and see parts of the city from two wheels. Or you can visit some great foodie spots for breakfast and walk paths by the Willamette River.

Settle in and scan the scenery from the comfort of your private vehicle between Portland and Crystal Mountain just outside of Mount Rainier National Park.

Drive from Crystal Mountain about 20 minutes into the Park and then travel along the road to Sunrise Point Lookout. Return to Crystal Mountain in the early afternoon.

Today's early wake up will be well worth it for a visit to Sunrise Point, a must-see destination for anyone visiting Mount Rainier National Park. Jutting out from the eastern flanks of Mount Rainier and sitting nearly 3,000 ft about the White River, Sunrise Point's location is best visited early in the morning when the rising sun illuminates the giant volcano and the other peaks that protect the mountain's base. After witnessing the gorgeous spectacle, head to the Sunrise Visitor Centre before heading back to Crystal Mountain.

Take advantage of the many optional activities available in the area and spend the afternoon at the resort property. Activities you can choose from are, a scenic gondola ride, an adventure course, or you can explore the resort property on your own. Crystal Mountain is the perfect base for getting to know the stunning natural beauty of this area while it is still relatively uncrowded.
