Wildflower obsessed? This one’s for you. There's

Wildflower obsessed? This one’s for you.

There's a few-week window every summer when Holzworth Meadows reaches its peak. Lupine, paintbrush, mountain monkshood — the whole alpine goes wyld. We timed this trip to coincide perfectly with it.

On our Holzworth Meadows backpacking trip, a dedicated plant interpreter joins you for the full journey. Not just names — but why each species grows exactly where it does, what it's doing for the ecosystem, and why peak bloom is one of the most fleeting, unrepeatable things the north has to offer.

Holzworth Meadows isn't just famous for its bloom — it's the kind of landscape that earns a second day. That's why we built three into this trip with peaks in every direction.

$275 + GST · Spots are limited

Fun fact: Lupines belongs to the pea family, and like all legumes, its roots host tiny nitrogen-fixing bacteria that actually fertilize the soil as it grows — making it one of the meadow’s quiet engineers. It’s essentially farming the ground beneath it while it blooms. Those gorgeous purple spires you see carpeting Holzworth Meadows aren’t just pretty — they’re actively rebuilding the alpine soil around them, making it possible for other plants to thrive season after season.

There's a before and after with gear knowledge.

Before: you're staring at a gear list, second-guessing every choice, and secretly wondering if you've got it wrong.

After: you know why everything in your pack is there. You can make good decisions on the trail. And that confidence? It changes the whole trip.

That's what Sara Laing and I — Jocelyn McDonald — designed this webinar to give you.

Two guides, two perspectives, one focused session.

Wren’s first sled ride at 1 month old. 🤍 For thos

Wren’s first sled ride at 1 month old. 🤍

For those of you who are new here—hi, it’s me, Jocelyn. Welcome to Peak Wyld.

This space is where we balance it all… adventure, business, tourism, and family. And we truly mean balance. Because out here, none of it works without the other.

We run adventure tours across Northern BC—from Smithers to Liard River Hot Springs—creating experiences for every kind of adventurer. We host kids’ survival camps, offer rentals, and do everything we can to advocate for this wild, beautiful part of the province we call home.

But behind all of that… I’m also a mom. I’ve got a 5-year-old, Wylder, and now our newest little wild one, Wren. We’re raising them the same way we’ve built this business—outside, hands-on, and grounded in the kind of life that teaches you something real.

I grew up in Fort Nelson, but I’ve traveled BC my whole life—from one end to the other—chasing hockey schools and adventure. I lived from the bottom of the province to the very top for hockey… and now I get to do it all over again, this time guiding adventurers through the same places that shaped me.

For the last 10 years, we’ve built this business—and it’s changed me, but also grounded me deeper into my roots. I started this at a very young age, and now I get to live it through every era of life… growing a company while growing a family right alongside it.

We’ve lived off-grid for the last 10 years, building a life out here. It’s not always easy—but it’s always worth it.

We hunt, we fish, we explore… because the outdoors isn’t just something we do—it’s who we are.

And Peak Wyld is our way of sharing that with you.

We’re so grateful for every bit of support that’s helped us grow this business while growing our family right alongside it. We’ve got an incredible crew lined up this year, and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve been building on the ground.

This is us. This is Peak Wyld. 🤍

7 am. Rain hammering the tarp. Trail flooded. Mora

7 am. Rain hammering the tarp. Trail flooded. Morale… let’s call it character-building. Camp just moved. I've seen rain move this valley year after year.

Then a solo figure emerges through the trees — soaked, pack loaded, trekking poles working overtime. He’d been doing the Wokkpash alone and got swallowed by the same storm we did. Crossed a river before he found us and admitted right away — he shouldn’t have.

He rounded the corner to find a camp full of women who had absolutely not stopped functioning.

Fire going. Coffee on. Hot packs being passed around like currency.

Without missing a beat, a mug got handed his way, a dry spot opened up under the tarp, and just like that — he was one of us.

Sometimes the mountains send you exactly who you need. And sometimes a stranger showing up soaking wet at dawn is the best thing that happens on a trip. ☕🔥

This is what it means to move through the wilderness with people who show up for each other — even the ones they just met.

Lady power is REAL and these women prove it every

Lady power is REAL and these women prove it every single day on the water. 🌊

Our Smithers river rafting partners know these rivers like the back of their hands — and we couldn’t be more honoured to call them our people. Anissa first came out on a Wild Women retreat, and now? She and her team are part of the Peak Wyld family. That’s the magic of what happens when like-minded women find each other in the wyld.

This summer, these ladies are taking you out on the water — and trust us, you’re in the best hands.

AND — a very exciting giveaway is coming your way. An ultimate weekend package in Smithers, BC is dropping soon. Follow along and get ready to enter. 👀

Wyld Explorers is BACK for 2026. 🌿 Last summer —

Wyld Explorers is BACK for 2026. 🌿

Last summer — plant ID, survival skills, map & compass. Kids in the wild doing real things. And honestly? It was one of my favourite parts of the entire season.

I’m deep in the kid era right now and I cannot WAIT for these events.

This year we’re changing up the locations for some days, adding a hike day, bringing in some special guests, and we want to make it even better than before.

But we need YOUR input ⬇️

🌲 What would you love to see your kids learning outside?
📍 Full days or half days — what works for your family?
👥 We’re also looking for two people to join our team for these events!
What age group are you looking for?

Drop your ideas in the comments, send us a DM, or tag a mama who needs to hear this.

Let’s get kids outside this summer. 🏔️
