THE TEAM!The Callaghan Country team is a small and eclectic crew of mountain loving individuals. Understanding that we are in the business of happiness, our service comes with the unique personality and charm that makes a place memorable. All team members tend to wear multiple hats to pull off a successful winter season at Callaghan Country and you are likely to find us either smiling out of a deep gratitude for our mountain surroundings and the amazing work family we are a part of, or grimacing because, well, sometimes it's really hard work and we're putting our ALL into it. Bottom-line, we all care about what we do and hope it shows.
The heart of our operation: The Callaghan Country Crew...

2021/22 Journeyman Lodge Crew
Lodge Chef, Joe
Originally from Ottawa, Ontario, Joseph came to us in 2017 with a classic case of an 'Easterner's love for the West Coast'. As a key crew member at Callaghan Country, he's living the dream as head chef at Journeyman Lodge, playing in the mountains by day and delighting guest plates by night. Joseph learned by osmosis the pleasures of hosting and cooking for large groups of family and friends from his Mom and Gramma. He would later move to Vancouver, British Colombia to become trained in French Classic Cuisine at the super hands-on, experienced based programs of VCC in Vancouver.
Joseph lives a simple life: eat, sleep, work and play outdoors (as in splitboarding, backcountry hiking, mountain biking, camping.) We are super grateful to have his easy-going and adventurous outdoor spirit grounding all our food related services this season at Journeyman Lodge.

Ski Shop & Touring Centre Lead Hand, Marie
Marie is the one you'll meet when entering Access Callaghan. She likes to discover our trails on skis and will be very happy to advise you about the gear you need or which trail to take so you can enjoy the beauty of this place as much as possible. She has a background in physical therapy and simply likes to be outdoors. In summer you can see her hiking, climbing, or running around the bush with a map and compass (also known as orienteering.) In the wintertime, cross-country skiing is activity number one for Marie! After your ski day you can just stop by and chat a bit and Marie will be happy to hear your stories and share the passion with you; Callaghan valley has much to offer!

Guest Service Administrator & Adventure Crafter, Nick
As a crew member at Callaghan Country, Nick keeps the details in order for upcoming and past lodge visits; they make reservations, processes payments, answers phones, emails, and finally, welcomes our guests at check-in. Nick joined the Callaghan Country team in Spring of 2017. They're a seasoned guest service professional with a background in history and a classic west coast appetite for snow sports (snowboarding particularly) so rather naturally, they found their way to Callaghan Country! Nick is the hub of daily communications among our team members so they're a pretty busy person in the office most of the time, but feel free to ask them about the ski into the lodge and they'll load you up on all the details with a smile.

Guest Service Administrator & Adventure Crafter, Nick Zichy
Nicholas grew up in Oak Ridges, Ontario where skiing and biking down hills were his favourite things to do, by far. The skis changed to a snowboard at age 12, but the passion only grew. At 19, the call from the coast mountains got too loud to ignore so Whistler, BC became home where 15 more years of chasing snowy mountains all over the west coast followed. Their draw has been consuming and incredibly fulfilling. The never-ending search around the corner and over the hill has created an equally passionate climber, hiker, fitness nut, and steward. Connecting to and playing in beautiful places has now become his obsession. Nicholas says he won the lottery at 30 when his wife spoiled him with two nights at the Journeyman Lodge. After experiencing the truly epic terrain and authentic people, he says he was hooked and wanted to stay. Joining the family at Callaghan Country became an obvious choice and he looks forward to choking on powder and learning how to use skinny skis to broaden the quiver.
