Tons of places to ride, the pemberton icecap is world famous. About 6 different zones up the hurley. If you are pulling a trailer the Pemberton valley lodge is right in town and has lots of parking. If you don't mind being out of town a bit the Barking frog has accommodation for big groups and is run by a sledder. There are also lots of B&B in Pemberton. Hire a guide if you want to see the good spots.

Since I sold my company I can't guide unless you get permission from the new owners.

if you plan on riding the ice caps, I'd highly suggest hiring a guide, or at least going up with someone who knows the area.

Just spend the money hook up with Chris brown and never look back he took us to some of the sickest zones and power up to your eyeballs he is excellent at what he does

I know it’s a bit of a long shot but can anyone send me in the right direction for a map of the riding areas around Pemberton or some places to ride ?

A guide is a good idea as said on the previous posts, the ice fields are massive and dangerous but also has the best sledding in all of BC.
Other wise the easiest place for you to go and ride is Brandywine, you can google it. The parking is slightly off the highway and there are plenty of signage to direct you there.
Its located about 45min out of Squamish on the left or 20min out of Pemberton on the right. I could be off some on the time as i really don't pay to much attention if i go there.
The trail in is easy to follow and self explanatory but once you climb out of the valley onto the glacier you need to take care, it a "F'n" HUGE area and easy to get in to trouble. Stay on the beaten paths and you will have a good time.
Watch the weather and if it socked in forget going on to the glacier.
There are many other riding areas you can search out once there with the local sled shop, but this is a good start to a big area for new comers to Pemberton.
