- Our Signature Features: Although nature provides the best features that we offer, man has added significantly to our centre as well, from our many outdoor enhancements, like our First Nations facilitated sweat lodge, our Poustinia cabin, where clients may go for silent retreats, to our Elk View Tower on our ridge walks, the 12 step trail, the lakes with canoes and kayaks, the meditation labyrinth, and the many other gathering and contemplative spots, that we have helped put into place. That which can awaken the soul, that adds so much to your treatment experience and helps you to be present, to be out of your head and living from your heart. We know how hard it is to slow down the squirrel cage that is your mind. Learning to become present, learning to “be here” is a vital part of recovery. This understanding, this is a major reason as to why the ranch exists and why we offer all that we do.
- Activities: Between our deeded land and the thousands of acres of crown (national forest) land that surrounds us, we have lakes with canoes & kayaks. We have mountain bikes, many trails to hike, serene places to contemplate, and nature at its finest here on the ranch.
“I promise you. Your life can and will improve in every way if you allow it to. The fear is holding you back. Let it go and get the help you need.”
