About the Author

Marc Bourdon has called Squamish home for more than 20 years, and first developed an interest in producing guidebooks through his former business, Squamish Rock Guides, which he operated for over 10 years. Marc loves the process of researching and documenting the activities he loves, and this led to the development of local guidebooks highlighting the fantastic climbing, skiing, trail running, mountain biking and hiking opportunities in this part of BC.

Marc shares these passions with his wife Pamela and daughter Elise. Together they’ve traveled extensively with memorable trips to Spain, Greece and Turkey being some of their fondest.
