Shazza is not a fan of heights. Or so she says. So when I had a friend book is on the Eagle Tour with Ziptrek Ecotours in Whistler, I wasn't sure how she'd react.
Their website describes our tour as:
Five new ziplines including a 2000' awe inspiring monster that drops over 20 stories, make this tour perfect for those who have already experienced our Ziptrek Bear Tour or are seeking even more heart pounding adrenaline. On this tour you end your adventure by zipping all the way back to Whistler Village!
Bright and early we rocked up to learn our tour was the three of us, William from the US and our two tour guides, James and Chris. Pity James, Chris and William.
We climbed into our harness, and bussed up to the start of the course. Shazza was not do sure about the first line, but James and Chris did an awesome job and it wasn't long before she was screaming and hollering (and peeing her pants - kidding) and wanting more.
The scenery was stunning, fresh snow everywhere. Our tour guides were friendly
and funny, and they put up with the three of us. For that alone they deserved a tip.
The zip trekking was amazing. We loved every minute of it. It was like flying without the plane. And we all zipped down the last line upside down. Yep, upside down, even Shazz. Best morning in a long time. Can't wait to go again.
