Since 1990, Kevan Bracewell has been sharing his mountain and backcountry knowledge through his wilderness guide school at Chilcotin Holidays. This intensive program prepares adventurers from around the globe to guide horse pack trips through remote mountain regions. Graduates from this guide program leave with more than knowledge, though; they leave with newfound confidence and solid leadership skills. And now, this life-changing experience is no longer confined to the remote mountain regions of BC.<\/p>\n<p>People from all continents can hear personal stories of challenges overcome and fears conquered straight from guide school students and interns. Through the blog page of the Chilcotin Holidays website, Kevan Bracewell and his team are bringing tales from the mountain ranch to a global audience. Given the fact that guide school students travel from all corners of the globe to partake in this wilderness guide program, it\u2019s only natural that their stories should reach an equally broad audience. From shoeing a horse for the first time to riding along the mountain tops, guide school students share major milestones from their journey to become true wilderness guides. On a deeper level, this website allows guide students to convey what it was like to continually stretch beyond their comfort zone. And while every mountain experience is unique, the universal theme is that guide students are able to move outside their comfort zone because they <em>decide<\/em> to. As guide students explain through the website, their courage and confidence grows with each purposeful decision to push beyond their own preconceived limitations. Kevan Bracewell sees this as one of the major benefits of his wilderness guide school. Few experiences in life can empower individuals to put their goals ahead of their fears like this remote BC guide school does.<\/p>\n<p>These life-changing experiences and opportunities for personal growth are among the main motivators for Kevan Bracewell as he continues to invest in guide students and interns from around the world. Ideally, everyone would have the opportunity to come to the ranch and push beyond their comfort zone, into the fullness of life. For those who can\u2019t travel to the remote BC wilderness, however, this website and its blog stories will provide a means for reflection and motivation for change as readers see people from all walks of life develop the confidence to live with determined purpose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Ready to write your own story from the mountain wilderness of BC?
