For travellers, life on the road ultimately winds to an end, and the compass points towards home. In the series finale, after excursions through ski cultures across the globe, Chad Sayers and Forrest Coots go back to the beginning - British Columbia. Embarking on a 3 week expedition, they boat, bushwack, ski, and packraft the spine of the Coast mountains. From interior plateau, steep chutes and over the Homathko Icefield, to the lush, carpeted coastal inlets of the Pacific coast. What is the meaning of home? A cast of characters help them understand what that term truly means.

Presented by Arc'teryx in association with Gore-Tex and Destination British Columbia

    Best adventure skiing movie that ive ever seen... i love the philosophy behind that.. not just a mix of music, jumping and skiing... i missed next series.
  • @PL-fh8cz
    Beautiful visual & verbal story telling. This is the antithesis of Warren Miller & Matchstick Productions way of portraying the mountains.
  • @TransHaus
    This is the greatest thing I've seen in a long time. I didn't know watching someone ski could make me teary eye'd. Thank you. A thousand times, thank you.
  • @marchanselman
    Thank you. I'm sad and fulfilled at the same time now that Skier's Journey is over. These are the only kind of ski films I care to see.
  • @BStephensonn
    This video actually means so much to me, thank you for being the creators of bringing me back to something that i feel so strongly for. Just having recently moved away from BC, over to the east coast I'm feeling quite home sick, and wondering often if this was the right decision. Everything spoken in your video is what runs through my mind daily, so this was a great little reminder of that beautiful place. Thank you
