Arc’teryx

Arc’teryx is a global design company based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, specializing in technical high-performance apparel, outerwear and equipment. Founded on the idea that there is always a better way. Canada has a Pioneering Spirit. We react to where we are in the moment. The only way to build the right gear for this environment was to build the company in this environment. You can’t separate manufacturing from idea, or from location.

British Pacific Properties

Since 1931, BPP has played a unique role in the development of West Vancouver, from the construction of the Lions Gate Bridge to the creation of exceptional master planned communities. We are proud of the legacy we have built here, and will continue building homes and neighbourhoods that bridge community and nature, guided by our commitment to outstanding craftsmanship and stewardship of the natural environment. Our upcoming neighbourhood Uplands will exemplify this commitment, setting a new standard for design and housing diversity while providing unparalleled access to outdoor recreation. These principles will inspire us as we move towards Cypress Village, a vision for a community that will redefine what it means to live in West Vancouver.

We specialize in bringing your backcountry ski dreams to life with epic powder, extensive and varied terrain, an expert team of local guides, chefs who are focussed on providing nourishing, healthy and colourful meals rich with local ingredients (think hand picked huckleberries, Kootenay-raised bacon and locally gathered Oregon grape jelly), and accommodation in our deluxe off-grid lodge. Summers at VMT are characterized by hikes to ridges, peaks and lakes, explosions of wildflowers, a higher likelihood of seeing a goat than another human, and the perfect home base to stretch, sauna and sink into the Kootenay pace of life.
