Which airport do I fly into?

If you are planning on just fishing S.E British Columbia we suggest flying into Glacier International (Kalispell MT).

If you are planning to spend some time with us on the Bow River then we suggest flying into Calgary, which is only 3 hours from our shop in Fernie B.C.

Global Rescue’s Signature Travel Insurance allows you to insure all of your expenses and covers all hunting activities.

Safety is our top priority, but unforeseen emergencies can occur.
