The Trails We’ve Blazed

Multiday ocean paddles, hunting trips, fishing trips, hiking trips where silence do as much teaching as the team supported by West Kelowna Firefighters. Expeditions have included hiking, kayaking, fishing, paddling, camping, and rafting.

“Crying as we paddled along a cloud-filled lake at the beauty and stillness I thought I could never experience again, the joy of freedom! I could do things again and the hope and realization that I could experience them again has changed me forever.” FITM Participant

Beyond the Call

Created for military and first responders to rebuild trust, process trauma, and reconnect with purpose.

These expeditions provide first responders a release from the everyday routines and stresses to enjoy the company of peers, in a pristine wilderness setting breathing in fresh mountain air and catching the afternoon sea breeze all the while focusing on the simple enjoyments of life.

PACE Wildhorse Traverse

Completing a race of any distance can be considered quite a feat for most, but few people could even imagine what a team of runners from AWE accomplished!

“Claire, joined by her six incredible teammates, raced with the all-terrain TrailRider. Claire was determined to conquer her first-ever trail race before turning 18. Not only did she chase her own dreams, but she also broke down barriers and inspired others to reach for the impossible.”
