Links to our route, as well as the gear we used (including our water filter) in the description.
Now there is a reason to visit Canada. I want to run this path! Great video, great presentation, great nature! Everything is wonderful :)
Very nice stable footage. Looking up your camera gear. You must have a second camera that isn't listed.
@@giorgossifnos1 I am coming with you! ;)

Great. I’m particular about water filters. I wish more camelbak products came with one instead of just thermoses, but I do know how to take this to army chemicals and wood made “char” coal
Inspiring? Absolutely. I went from literally running zero miles per month last year to ~50/week, many of them on great trails. This summer, I saw so much more of Yosemite than I ever would have because I was confident in tackling distances I wouldn't have considered in the past. I'm getting better sleep, am now at a healthy BP and am, in general, healthier than I maybe have been in my entire life. I have to credit your Tor Des Geants video as a main factor in getting me out there and changing my trajectory.
Amazing! I love hearing this so much. Congrats on your life change and keep it up!
But watch out for them Sasquatch.
This comment is so meaningful to me because watching Jeff’s videos has been an emotional booster to create and maintain healthy habits. Hope one day I will have the opportunity to visit Yosemite and get to know its amazing trails and mountains
That is wonderful to hear and more power to you. The self-powered adventure life is so fundamental to being a human IMHO and it's really special to hear of someone like yourself getting out and doing it! Cheers from Sydney - Dave
Well done nalgo be well
My two friends and I backpacked this route a few days ago, because we were very inspired by this video and it seemed like a great backcountry backpacking objective. We hiked 2.5 days, camping 2 nights (at Helm Creek and at Russet Lake). It was absolutely gorgeous and probably my favorite hike I've done in BC so far!
Before the trip, from the video it looked like it was not too difficult, but luckily we got the challenge we were looking for. Carrying up our big backpacks with tents and all up that Whistler Mountain was no joke. When watching the video again after the hike, we felt so seen as Jeff and Audree seemed to be as tired as we were. We had the exact same reaction when we found the water source after the Whistler Mountain.
Thank you so much for sharing this gorgeous route! It was an amazing adventure!
Ah that's a great idea to go and hike some of these trails!
Glad I saw this post! haha
What a stunning run. Kicking myself for never taking the opportunity to do this while living over there. Spring/Summer plan making commence.
Jeff and Audree always deliver. I just can’t get enough!!
Your videos have been inspiring me. I just recently began training for long distance walking with the hopes of doing the Camino de Santiago hopefully in 2025 before I turn 60 (in two years). I live in a very hilly and beautiful area called the Southern Tier of NY state. So I able to get a lot of variety in on my walks. But since finding your channel and watching you and Audree' do all your races, I actually attempted to "shuffle" (what I call my slow version of jogging) down hill, haha (that comes from a person with bad knees and a supposedly needed hip replacement. What I LOVE about these videos is that you leave the drama OUT and while you do say what's hard and where you struggle - you do it in a positive way and not for the RUclips clicks. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thank you Jeff. Audrée and you inspired my girlfriend to start running. We bought her Salomon trail running shoes and started training together 😃We love your videos and are watching all of them, one by one. Love you both 🥰
I'm not sure how often people tell you Jeff, but you motivate myself and I'm sure a lot of others included. I got diagnosed with a GI disease last year called ulcerative colitis and it's pretty much derailed me from any exercise activity motivation for the past year. Luckily, I'm on some medication and starting to feel normal enough to try to pick up running again the past month or so and it feels amazing to be moving again. I've almost been binge watching your videos lately and I really appreciate your motivation through these videos as well as the dedication it takes from you amongst training/races to make these great documentaries of your journey. I'd honestly love to get involved with trail running races and do all of these incredible things you've done on your journey man. Eventually get my wife out there walking/jogging on trails too so we can create memories like you and your spouse are doing! You're going to have a hell of a story to tell when you're older brother. Keep making us proud and motivated, I look forward to binging more content of yours for sure!
Thanks so much, and best of luck with your recovery and getting back to running!
Jeff you have no idea how you help me , especially mentally, for my upcoming occ utmb race . Im a 51 yrs old ultra runner mom from Kuwait , a country that is too flat with not even a single hill in sight , temp is hot 53 c degrees in the summer , my longest mountain race was 100k. Im putting all my effort into my dream of finishing occ .. your videos are what keep me going on long runs on the treadmill and stairs . Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart all the way from Kuwait 💕💕💕
Thanks so much for the message, and best of luck at OCC!
I really do like your vidoes but I most say that my favorites are when you include Audree, you two complement each other for me as a viewer in a way that takes the vidoes to another level. Especially in "Mega Trail" I really like the back and forth between you two and the difference on how you portray you experiance.
Your videos have gotten me off the couch, and working out or running multiple times already. Thanks for all that you guys do! It’s truly inspiring.
One of the reasons that I run is the enjoyment of where it can take me in nature. Whatever fitness I gain is a tool to get me out into the beautiful areas that I want to see. Videos like this which highlight the beauty of nature are inspiring to me to build my fitness to the point where I can embark on similar journeys.
Did this video inspired? Hell yeah -- I think this is the 3rd time I watched this video. I have bookmarked Garibaldi for my last long training run before my ultra in July. Thanks Jeff and Audree!
Definitely inspiring Jeff. My husband and I have been watching a few of your videos, we like your style. We live in Hobart Tasmania and are lucky enough to have a forest nature reserve within walking distance of our home. We love the outdoors too, being in it is a tonic for our mental health.
Thank you, Jeff and Audree for sharing this experience with us. Your videos have inspired me to get back to running after a five-year hiatus. I grew up skiing, hiking, running, and cycling in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, and your videos definitely make me miss the nature of Canada. I have been living in Saudi Arabia for twenty years, but it still takes a lot to get me homesick. This video certainly did that!
Did this video inspire me?! Are you kidding...? I was practically drooling over those insane views! Haha... What a beautiful place! In April of 2020, just out of the damn blue, I suddenly got plantar fasciitis and it's not been terrible at all, but I can't get rid of it no matter what I do. So, I have decided to run again. It doesn't make a difference if I do or not and I have been missing my long trail runs soooo much! I am currently at three 4-mile runs a week. So, still very much at the beginning. But I'll get back to my long distances and until I do, I just keep living vicariously through you! Thank you!!
Thanks and sorry to hear about your PF - that can be a really tough one to get over. Fingers crossed for you!
I’m not sure I could easily say why, but this is my favourite of your videos so far. I am not an ultra runner, but my wife and I do run a little and do a little trail running. I like the variety of your videos. It’s great to see the events you participate in. But it’s also great to see days like this one.
To be honest, it was a revelation to hear that you had to work up to a day like this. That was reassuring to hear. I had foolishly thought that you are just super humans who do this kind of a run on a whim.
So I think what I particularly like (in addition to the beautiful scenery) is hearing a little about the background to what running trails like this requires of you.
Also, since I am primarily a mountain biker (based in Ireland) it was great to see a little of Whistler from a different perspective. I especially loved seeing you walking on the bike trails.
If I could give a video two thumbs-up, this one would get it from me. Thanks.
Thanks John, I appreciate the feedback and the kind words! It's easy for us to begin to take for granted to a degree all of the training that goes into these kinds of runs and to not talk about it. Both my training and recovery is something that I plan to speak more about in my future videos.
Even these mountains are not your guys territory, but you guys really know it very well. The longest hiking I did just half of your trip, which is Panorama ridge. “Nature is not somewhere we visit, it’s home”.
Thanks Lin, we definitely have spent a lot of time in the park over the years. Love that quote, by the way.
Thank Jeff, Audrey! My husband and I love your videos, they inspire us and we resonate to the way you look at trail running-hard, yet amazing.
Watched this while grinding out zone 2 on the treadmill lol. Really kept me going
Wow! Those mountains and streams make me long for a break from civilization and an eyeful of natural beauty! Especially here in flat-Texas!
My Respect for what you've done, both of you, really tough challenge
You live in a stunning part of the world, and the way you capture and show it is amazing!
Thanks Pawel!
Yes, your videos greatly inspire me! Thanks so much for posting them.
Incredible part of the country, I miss BC!! Thanks for the tour :)
very inspiring, I was thinking about going into trail running, but now I will sign up for my first 100 miler for sure. Thanks a Million!
Very much inspired me to begin a journey with my family hiking in the Lower Mainland and beyond! Fantastic videography too; you've gained elevation and a follower today!
Your films are very inspiring and motivating! Thank you very much!!!
Generally, I don’t subscribe to any channel but I found your video so amusing. Thank you for your video, tomorrow I will try to at least do until the Barrier lookout. Please continue with the great content that you share.
I am 47,and started running exactly one year ago. I was not able to run more than 30 sec interval with 2 min walk in between. Today I ran my first 10k. The beauty is that after watching your videos (back to back sometimes) I did the 10K as trail run. My goal is to run the 50k at Quebec Mega Trail. I love your videos and definitely you are an inspiration for many others including myself. I am still exploring your channel to see if I could find more info about nutrition and preparation. I am doing intermittent fasting and low carbs that helped me reverse diabetes but not sure if it will be sustainable when running long distances.
Hello there! I am 47 as well and started to run some months ago. The videos by you, Jeff, motivate me as well tremendously and I thank you so much for that! I am having so much fun, working on my consistency and setting new goals - and think of your Ultra Runs when things are getting hard on my 5K distances. : )
Big fan. All of your videos inspires me. Actually just started trail running a couple of months ago (mountain biker/road cyclist/runner) and now dealing with injuries (posterior tibial). Been waiting a while for new videos, so now catching up on old ones. Keep them coming Jeff!
Most beautiful scenery I think I've ever seen with all that golden sunshine!
Yes, this video is very inspiring! Thanks to both of you from south Brazil.
Remains one of my go to videos to inspire. Fantastic landscape captured by Jeff
Consider me inspired. Always appreciate these videos Jeff
Totally agree with getting people out there and outside of our comfort zone. I get so much energy from being outdoors. Like in "the commercial", are you going to miss the most the things you didn't buy ... or the places you didn't go!
After over 10 years off running your channel has inspired me to get back in shape and start running in nature. I hope to finish an ultra this year! Great content.
you sir are living a life of gods. And I find the video very inspiring.
An awesome film, my small screen did not do justice to the scenery!
That frame at 9:42, Just so amazing.
Thank your, for the inspiring video. A big hug from Italy
Definitely inspired and this brought back memories from the last year’s (and the final) WAM 100 km. Haven’t thought of connecting panorama to cheakamus so, thanks to you guys, I’ve now added this to my goals!
RUclips keeps pushing y'alls videos on me and I just keep watching them. This is one of my favs so far!!
Thanks Michelle! Glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful filmed and edited, Jeff; like always! I love the little historical tidbits you put in.
Thanks man!
what a *beautiful* video! Thank you both for taking us on your journey. This was a stunning route with some serious climbs but you both made it look easy and so much fun. 😀
Thank you for sharing these breathtaking views with us. I've been a marathon runner for 10 years so far and I'm looking to do my first ultra next year. Videos like this are super motivating.
Enjoy your journey from road marathon to trail ultra! I began mine 10 years ago now and have never looked back.
Some of these scenery look so good that it doesn't even seem real
It sure can feel that way at times when you're there as well.
Really pretty location. Nice clear day. Good camera work. Color saturation was brilliant. Thanks.
Fantastic video of a spectacular route. You do such a great job of putting these videos together Jeff - running something like this is already challenging enough, and the fact that you can film it so well at the same time is truly inspiring. Keep 'em coming! (post-taper ;)
Always appreciate the balance between the beauty and reality of trail running you portray in your films Jeff. Keep it rolling! Good luck on your guys' race!
after watching this it reminds me why i work so hard so i can get back to the Squamish /whistler area mountains to enjoy them summer and winter and i just have to do that route you showed today ⛷🚴🏃♂.......last time in the early 1990's we had to cross the cheakamus river at helm creek in a hand pull cable car and now there is a pedestrian bridge☺
Love this channel! Thanks for putting our awesome videos!
Love your videos Jeff. I've actually been living in Whistler for nearly 30 years and have been a lifelong road biker and mountain biker. I've recently started backpacking the local trails with my teenage son and we're loving it. I want to start fastpacking with some run/walking. I have no desire to full-on trail run like but I'm loving the change of getting out there on 2 feet instead of 2 wheels. Thank you!
Love this…. Haven’t been able to run due to back issues and I’m feeling the loss of not having it in my life. Watching your videos makes me miss it so much. Thank you guys
Thanks Jeff. Hi from Australia. Absolutely beautiful. It’s on out bucket list.
Gobsmackingly beautiful and inspiring in the extreme. At times I spontaneously reacted with laughter and tears of disbelief at the sheer beauty of your video. My wife and I and our 2 kids here in Sydney in lockdown have truly enjoyed this spectacle. Your GPX file is safely in my Garmin route list now (thank you) and one day we'd love to do this trail - probably over a couple of days.
Having worked in Calgary for some years in the past, I have been lucky enough to enjoy your Canadian wilderness, especially around Banff, Peto Lake etc., and can't wait to share it with my famo. On Friday my 11yo and I will head out and do a half marathon run around some local trails. At age 4 Will became the youngest person (unofficially) to do the Tongariro Crossing trail in NZ. At age 2, our daughter (unofficially) became the youngest person to do the 14km City to Surf here in Sydney (100,000+ people do this every year). So our family has a bit of the crazy going on and we can't wait to bring it to you lovely Canadians (Aussies with an accent...). Cheers and thanks - Dave
Amazing! I'd love to explore some of the Australian outback one day myself.
@@JeffPelletier Us Aussies would love to have you here. Check out the Larapinta Trail - that is a true Central Australian experience. You name it, we've got it here - desert, rainforest, mountainous (though nothing like the Rockies in scale), alpine etc. Very different to Canada but wild, enormous and beautiful. You'll have to do it mate!
Thanks for the recommendation!
I love the instrumental at the end Winged V for the Sullen so good. Your videos are the best
Jeff & Audrée - this is a truly amazing video. I get such a huge endorphin rush from watching the introduction... it's a huge inspiration to get out on the trails. I've been recovering from knee surgery these past 4 months and am just now back to a place where I can run a few miles on trails again - and this video fills me with pure joy and anticipation! Thank you both so much for sharing it.
This video was so fun to watch. Magical! Thank you.
Thanks Wes!
Love your closing comments. Suffer in beautiful places with people you love. Explore and appreciate nature. Perfect.
Thanks Carrie Ann!
Your videos are amazing and truly inspiring. I’m looking at doing some of this in the uk instead of always road running. I watch them in the evening instead of the tv. They are addictive !!
You have definitely inspired me to get my butt on those trails. This is all I do up here in Alaska and while it looks 99% the same those are still new (yet more crowded) trails that I have to try. 😜
This is my go to video. I've probably viewed this 10 times or more... today i had it playing during my home workout. incredible. ❤
🙌
Very nice shot Jeff - as always! I also watched Kerry Ward's run/hike on almost the same route and am impressed with the area. Since I also do trail running, your videos really motivate me when I'm on the treadmill in the winter and getting ready for summer runs in the Alps.
In response to your comment near the end, your videos are so inspiring and incredible! Keep up the great work!
Incredible! Can't wait for summer in BC, your video and Strava updates are so inspiring for a beginner trail runner like me situated in North Van. Next race is Run Ridge Run at Diez Vistas 😀
Jeff You Produce World Class Videos. Like this one, and your Fast Packing around UTMB.
Or Crewing and Pacing the Hardrock 100 !!!
These Videos are definitely Awe Inspiring, and well worth watching every minute. !!
I spend a whole summer in 2005 hiking all thru the Canadian Rockies. It was Magnificent !!!
I admire your youthful speed, and excitement for pushing yourself, out of your Comfort Zone,
In the Most Beautiful Places in the World. !!! Trail Running has got to be the Ultimate Lifestyle !!!
I am envious that you have found a way to do what you Love, as well as making a Living Doing it.
I did a lot of Adventurous things in my 20' and 30's. Now at 63, I am mostly Sedentary, having lost
Mobility, because both lower legs have been amputated. Be Very Grateful for your Legs and Feet, that
they are able to Carry you, as far, and as fast as you can go. Sadly, Badly, that is not me any more.
Growing Old Sucks !! And watching these kinds of Videos, is nice as a Spectator, but not the Same,
As having the Adrenalin Rush, of actually going outside, and climbing up mountains yourself.
Enjoy all the Fun and Adventures, and keep posting more World Class Videos. !!!
Wow, stunning trail. You two are badasses!! Way to go!
Totally inspiring!! This video inspires me to try and find a way to run more in the mountains which is something I really enjoy. Not an easy task because of the way my life is going right now. But I'll figure it out. Thanks Jeff for putting out such amazing content!
Way to go you two! Awesome video and yes, definitely inspiring!
Thanks Jamie!
Wow, simply wow! Jeff & Audree, I am so grateful to you both for sharing the adventures and your trail running journey. I started trail running this year, and have done a couple of races on Vancouver Island this past summer and this video (and a few other videos of yours) have absolutely convinced me to trail run for the rest of my life. I’ve been learning & training to keep going, and shall continue to do so. Have promised myself to qualify for the UTMB in the next few years.
Thank you for inspiring so many of us ❤🙏
Thanks Jeff and Audrey. Beautiful scenery. Keep up the inspiration for all of us down under
I'm 36 and started watching your videos about a month and a half into my first-ever attempt at becoming a regular runner, I'm now about 4 months in hitting 50k+ a week and loving it! Your videos are a big inspiration and often when I'm out and struggling I find myself thinking of the things you've said whilst doing some commentary on your own races.
HiJeff...(as I wrote to you on Instagram... I’ll “say” here too 😃)
I just to say that... I’m very big fan of you...
I love your movies... your runs and reviews... The movie quality is incredible…we can see all the details of the beautiful place that you are...
I’m so excited watching “running 68km in Garibaldi Providencial Park”
Sorry for my English but you have a Brazilian fan here...
So... God bless you and keep doing this amazing job
I fast packed panorama ridge in 2017 and it was UNBELIEVABLE. Hiked it in 2019. That last long bit of woods back down feels like forever though. 😂 thanks for taking me back to the area. This route looks like a blast.
Another great video Jeff! You 100% inspire us to keep exploring new places locally and sharing our experiences in a similar way. Personally, I sometimes even think about getting into trail running again after watching your videos. 😂
You are doing great
I was awestruck after seeing such views
I loved this so much. Thanks Jeff.
super inspiring ! greetings from Paris (France) !
You make me jealous with these images. In the Netherlands we don't have such mountains and nature.
Wow wow that’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Jeff and Audree - absolutely inspiring! I love the videos! I am a new runner and I am going to begin to really focus on trail running and get out there more. The treadmill is getting a bit boring! I love what you guys are doing - please continue to bring us great content like this!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video, Jeff! Beautiful nature, informative narration and a lot of positivity and beautiful weather! Good job on the run :)
Thank you! I appreciate the support 🙏
That is beautiful......
Thank you for sharing......
Thanks Gary, glad you enjoyed it.
Absolutely love your work Jeff - seriously the best running content on YT. I did this route as two separate runs over the last couple of weeks and now you have inspired me to have a go at the link up although I know that Khyber ascent is going to be an absolute killer - it was hard on fresh legs :)
I'm only 7 months into trail running and I LOVE it. Started just because I accidentally watched one of your videos. Keep doing it. And thank you!
Amazing! I’ll keep making films if you promise to keep trail running 🤝
@@JeffPelletier Sure 🤝
Thanks for sharing. Amazing place! Maybe someday 😊. And yes, everything you have here on your channel is very inspiring.
That scenery is unreal! Thanks for yet another beautiful and inspirational film.
inspired ... love your humility and passion for life - thanks for sharing
Really enjoyed your video. I am on my way back from injury so watching this give me hope to be out and running strong again.
Love your filming! It's very beautiful, calming and inspiring. I'm a runner who'd love to try what you do on the trails. Just gotta fix my long time left foot issue first. 🙋♂️😊
Thanks for the video. For sure you are a great source of inspiration : not only by your videos but also by the fact that you are a good and humble runner. So thanks for all Jeff. And keep on
Just ran Black Tusk in training for the Diez 50. Amazing trail and area.
Definitely inspired to go play more in this area over a couple days.
You asked if your video inspired us.... And the answer is yes! Everything about it, the unbelievable nature scenes, the fitness and skill, the commentary, the lifestyle, the music. Recently discovered your channel, and it's my new Netflix and way more chill. It's my dream to immigrate to Vancouver, and be a lifetime trial runner. I am a music teacher from South Africa. Thanks for providing wholesome content and be blessed in your ventures.
I'm a year late in watching this video, but I have to comment and say a huge Thank You for posting this! The beauty of the scenery is breathtaking. I've never seen lakes that color of blue before. This was a gorgeous film. Thank you so much for filming and sharing it with us!
Glad you enjoyed it! Glacial lakes are quite unique in terms of colour - it’s caused by how the sunlight reflects off the sediment.
I bet I have watched this video 15 times over the last year while grinding away on spreadsheets at my computer. Something about it. I actually make it out to Vancouver for work several times a year and I'm not sure how I'm going to work this out logistically but I have to make this track at some point. The trails look amazing and don't even get me started with the views. Last time I was there I did the sea wall which was awesome but this has to be done! Well done on this video.
Oh Yeah big inspiration. I live 1,5 hour from the Pyrenees (France), you really inspire me to get serious about trail running/hiking. I wish I can do long days like you one day. Keep it up and "Merde" as we say to wish you well on your 100 mile run soon. Tks
Merci beaucoup!
Hands down my favourite RUclipsr. Showcasing some of the most beautiful landscapes with absolutely beautiful filmmaking. You absolutely inspire me to explore more of my backyard! Don't ever stop making films!
Thanks James, I really appreciate the kind words!
indeed so inspirational ! im getting ready for the Gaspesia 5ok in June and wish had vast outdoor like you guys have nearby to get out there for real ! i sincerely enjoy the channel and you both ! thanks so much for all the work you put in
