Alison Iles

Twenty four years into her career at Backroads, Alison’s a self-proclaimed lifer—and she’s proud of it! Her life path with Backroads began with leading and researching trips all over the world. Since, she’s worn many hats, and is now both Family Brand Manager and Regional Manager for Canada, Puget Sound, Vermont and Iceland. Hers has been an inspiring and motivating journey, for her friends and family, and for the rest of us here at Backroads. Alison and her husband (an avalanche forecaster and ex Backroads Trip Leader) and their two adrenaline-seeking teenagers live and play in Whistler, British Columbia. In her own words: “I’m truly living the dream!”
