A true backcountry experience based in two extraordinary locations, British Columbia and Baja California, Mexico, Mountain Trek programs immerse guests in scenery you cannot find near most urban cities.Unlike other boot camp/weight-loss programs that focus entirely on shedding pounds, Mountain Trek focuses on metabolism, providing a holistic approach to every guest, addressing hormonal imbalances and reconnecting the mind, body and spirit, with the end goal of helping guests reclaim overall functional health.

As Program Director and Lead Guide at Mountain Trek, Kirkland Shave’s passion is to help guests rediscover their health and vitality.
