Choose From Three Options

• $109 for a two-hour ATV tour for one (a $230 value)
• $199 for a two-hour ATV tour for two (a $460 value)
• $349 for a two-hour ATV tour for four (a $920 value)

Seasoned tour guides lead ATV riders with valid driver’s licenses through a choice of destinations including Britannia Mines, Stave Lake, Harrison Hot Springs, Emory Creek, Eagle Point, or Chehalis Lake. The staff supplies helmets and eye protection, and requires a damage deposit on a major credit card prior to each tour.

BC Power Sports mixes sightseeing with adrenalin to yield intimate views of hard-to-reach nature spots. Trained in first aid and approved by the Canadian Safety Council, their tour guides escort riders on ATV tours through an array of British Columbia’s verdant landscapes, from the ghosts of Stave Lake’s old cedar forest to Eagle Point, where roughly 2,000 bald eagles regularly swoop into Harrison River to adopt a pet salmon. The shop also outfits guideless adventures with vehicles chosen from their fleet of ATV rentals, which includes four-by-fours such as the 2011 Polaris Sportsman 400 HO or the two-seat 2011 Polaris Ranger. Each of the ATVs requires certification to ride, which visitors can obtain during the six-hour CSC safety course taught by a CSC qualified instructor. In addition to matching riders with four-wheeled friends, the staff also splashes through the path less taken during wakeboarding and wakesurfing tours.

• Two double-bill movie tickets for admission to double screenings or single screenings (a $12.50 value each)
• One large popcorn (a $5 value)

Foreign, classic, and Canadian films light up the big screen at Pacific Cinémathèque, a 194-seat theatre recognized by the Vancouver Sun as the best art-house and foreign-film venue in 2009. Established as a film society almost four decades ago, the movie palace has since flourished into a polestar for under-the-radar films, showcasing lesser-known works and cinematic icons alike during single and double billings six nights a week. In an effort to enhance Vancouver’s cinematic culture without transplanting the Hollywood sign to the top of One Wall Centre, the theatre is also home to several educational opportunities including a film reference library and the West Coast Film Archive, which preserves the legacy of independent filmmaking on Canada’s west coast.

Eighteen Pastures Golf Course and Tall Timber Golf Course
http://www.eighteenpastures.com/index.php
29110 Matheson Ave. Mission, British Columbia
(604) 462-8622

23523 56th Ave. Langley, British Columbia
(604) 534-0213

Choose Between Two Options

• $27 for an 18-hole round of golf for two on a weekday (up to a $55 value)
• $37 for an 18-hole round of golf for two on a weekend (up to a $74 value)

Rounds can be redeemed at either Eighteen Pastures Golf Course in Mission or Tall Timber Golf Course in Langley.

Both golf courses offer different rates for seniors, juniors, and adults. They also offer discounted rates on particular days, but this Groupon still represents the best deal in terms of availability.

With two distinct layouts that bob and weave through groves of douglas fir, cedar, and hemlock trees, both Eighteen Pastures Golf Course and Tall Timbers Golf Course invite clubbers for a day of challenging golf. The more difficult of the two layouts, Eighteen Pastures flummoxes stick-flickers with more than 6,800 yards of topsy-turvy terrain, where precipitous hillsides and bending fairways lined with arbors conceal upcoming hazards, which include 10 ponds and a multitude of sand traps. The course’s front and back nines converge at the unique clubhouse, a bright red barn with a tall silo on one end said to contain the souls of every golf ball lost on the course.

An easier and shorter alternative to its grassy brethren, Tall Timbers sprawls across 5,921 yards of kempt fairways cleaved through second-growth West Coast forests. The rippling waters of streams and ponds run throughout the course, attracting waterfowl and thirsty golf carts as clubbers hack through the 160-acre landscape.

Tour boats ferry no more than 12 passengers out to oceanic playgrounds where encounters with orcas, humpbacks, grey whales, and other majestic sea creatures are promised by the company’s whale-sighting guarantee.

Outer Island Expeditions’ fleet of kayaks and boats safely cruises at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour through frothy crests ebbing amid the striking sights and wildlife of the San Juan islands. Venturing as far as 50 miles into Canadian waters, whale-watching excursions foster personal rapport between patrons and boat-side orcas, gray whales, or humpback whales trying to learn human etiquette for future espionage missions. Tours of Stuart Island’s Turn Point lighthouse begin aboard a 22-foot Kodiak skiff, which buoys patrons through 16 miles of waters inhabited by sea lions and porpoises before they disembark and hike to the lighthouse’s historical museum. Fishing charters set sail in search of ocean creatures and potable salt water from all of Outer Island Expeditions’ four launch points: Smuggler’s Villa Resort, Semiahmoo Resort, Lopez Island, and The Willows on Lummi Island.

Streamline Guiding
http://www.fishinginvancouver.ca/
33331 Harbour Ave, Mission, British Columbia
(778) 389-3474

Choose Between Two Options

• $199 for a four-hour Fraser River fishing excursion for two (a $400 value)
• $350 for a four-hour Fraser River fishing excursion for four (an $800 value)

Passengers tow their lines for resident sturgeon as they float down the river and its tributaries. Two trips depart daily, with one on the water from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and another from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Whether venturing out in summer rains or winter snow, the guides at Streamline Guiding defy the weather to ply both salt and freshwater for a chance to catch sturgeon, trout, salmon, and steelhead at the peaks of their seasons. They lead year-round tours and charters aboard Custom Weld and Grady White boats, demonstrating their experience in both fly and gear fishing, as well as in hunting for prime fishing spots by following clues such as muddy fin prints. Guides operate out of a centre within close proximity to these fishing grounds with a stock of Sage rods, Simms waders, and Gamakatsu hooks for use on expeditions. While most captains embark on trips to capture fish, they also take visitors on eco-tours, where all aboard can see bald eagles flying to salmon spawning sites; seals, sea lions, and otters lounging on rocky shores; and porpoises bullying minnows for their lunch money.
