We become healthier - both mentally and physically.
We become more creative and more focused.
We connect - with nature, each other, and ourselves.

Jeffrey Douglas - Mountain Guide + Owner of Mountain Goat Adventures
Meet Jeff Douglas, a Canmore-based mountain guide who recently completed a three-year quest to hike every single one of Banff National Park’s 2,000-plus kilometres of trails… all in hopes of seeing the park’s elusive bison herd.
As the owner of Mountain Goat Adventures and a certified guide, Jeff has spent more than 15 years exploring the Bow Valley, Banff, and beyond, turning his passion for the outdoors into a way of life.
From long trail runs in remote corners of the Rockies to technical backcountry ski traverses, Jeff’s story is about curiosity, endurance, and what it means to truly know the mountains.
ABOUT JEFF
Jeff has lived and guided in the Bow Valley for over 15 years. As a certified ACMG Hiking Guide, Professional Interpretive Guide, and instructor of both flatwater canoeing and nordic skiing, Jeff has made his passions into his profession.
Having worked at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise for the last 15 years, Jeff has been able to explore and connect with the endless trails surrounding Banff, Canmore, Lake Louise and beyond. If there is a trail that you want to check out Jeff has most likely planted a hiking pole on it.
Currently, Jeff’s pursuits revolve around trail running in remote areas of the National Parks as well as long and technical backcountry skiing traverses.
