This all-women’s mountain bike camp is designed just for you! \nSweet Skills and Tyax Adventures have proudly partnered for over 10 years to bring you a unique women’s-only backcountry mountain bike experience in the breathtaking South Chilcotin Mountains. Tailored for strong intermediate riders\, this 3-day adventure combines alpine singletrack\, remote wilderness\, and expert coaching from Sweet Skills’ supportive female instructors. \nYour journey begins with a floatplane drop at Warner Lake\, launching you into one of BC’s most iconic MTB zones. Each day features scenic climbs\, hike-a-bike sections\, and rewarding descents through meadows\, forests\, and wildflower-filled valleys. Expect 4–6 hours of daily riding on technical\, remote trails with incredible views around every turn. \nEvenings are spent at Spruce Camp\, a cozy wilderness retreat with canvas-walled tents\, raised beds\, hearty home-cooked meals\, bonfire stories\, and the opportunity for a refreshing dip in Spruce Lake. \nBackcountry Riding with a View \nThis unforgettable trip begins with a scenic floatplane ride to Warner Lake\, launching you into a stunning alpine setting. But don’t let the flight fool you— the Chilcotins will have you earning your turns with pedal-powered climbs\, adventurous hike-a-bike sections\, and unforgettable descents. \nThis 3 day trip starts with a scenic plane ride to the beautiful Warner lake. From here the backcountry adventure begins!  Don’t let the plane ride fool you\, the Chilcotins will have you earning your turns 😉  Sweet Skills coaches will help you tackle some longer challenging climbs and an adventurous hike-a-bike up a mountain pass.  You will then be rewarded with some of the most epic descents on signature single track through rolling grasses and meadows. \n  \nNights in the Wild \nRiding is only part of the experience. Your backcountry basecamp at Spruce Camp is the perfect place to unwind after big days on the trail. Cozy canvas walled tents with comfy raised beds\, home cooked meals and nights by the bonfire await us at the end of our adventurous days out. 2 nights will be spend enjoying the wilderness at Spruce Camp and where we can completely unwind.  A short walk to Spruce Lake is a must for a jump in the lake! Two nights in the wilderness will leave you rested\, reset\, and reconnected with nature. \nThe Sweet Skills Explorer camp in the Chilcotins was absolutely magical. I hadn’t done a girls bike trip before with 9 other women and 2 guides and boy did this deliver. The company was top notch\, the accommodations and food were perfection\, the coaching was just enough to give us something to work on but not so much that it distracted from getting on the bikes and having fun…and the biking – WOW. Challenging\, scenic and 100% worth all the sweat. Highly recommend. Can’t wait for my next Sweet Skills camp!
