Ham, Bell Pepper, Field Cucumber and #FancyOldMustard piled high on Defrosted Multigrain Sliced bread.
It tasted fantastic and the alpine setting helped increase the flavorable experience.

Location: Location Unknown
About the sandwich:
Haven’t been able to get to any mountains lately, but I wish I could, and I’m a big fan of this site, and Turkey on Rye, so I doodled this pleasant mountain sandwich moment instead.

About the sandwich:
The sandwich: elk and juniper salami, goat gouda, green peppers, hot Finnish mustard and butter on barley quinoa bread.
A hearty and enormously satisfying sandwich consumed while gazing across the Garibaldi Neve and Tabletop Mountain on a perfect bluebird day.
The view and the sandwich had me almost moved to tears. So good. It had been too long since I had last packed an alpine sandwich. No more salads. Back on the sandwiches.
roast beef, caramelized onion, cheese
From: John Ganderton
Location: Steep Peak, Duffey Lake
About the sandwich:
An awesome roast beef, caramelized onion, cheese and I think a bit of lettuce all in some lovely whole wheat bread. To be honest it was a last minute buy from the grocery store on a day trip to the top of Steep Peak. Had some great sun all the way to the top, clouds rolled in for the ski but we had a great run down the north face and then skied chute 56 back to the truck, sweet day, amazing sandwich!

From: Jonathon Doherty
Location: Mt. Baker
About the sandwich:
Mmmhh nothing beats a turkey and ham sandwich with avocado, mango salsa, cholula hot sauce, and green peppers topped off with a PBR while shredding Baker backcountry pow and receiving a Vitamin D overdose. Life is good
Home made italian bread, hummus, green peppers, aged canadian cheddar, brochetta
From: David Berliner
Location: Mount Megantic, Quebec
About the sandwich:
Home made italian bread (3/4 inch slices); hummus; green peppers; aged canadian cheddar; brochetta. The name stems from the combo of hummus with the cheese/brochetta. (The thick bread is necessary to soak up any extra oil from the brochetta).
Winter camping at Park Megantic in Quebec. Woke up to a beautiful morning, put on the snowshoes, and made it to the peak of Mount Megantic (at 1200m, pretty good for east coast standards).
just as I snapped a shot, this bird swooped into the frame. which makes for a pretty funny photo. (the sandwich and bird were fine).
organic arugula, double smoked farmers' cut bacon, tomato and lemonaise!
From: Olga L
Location: Sproat Mountain, BC
About the sandwich:
There is an African proverb: “It takes a village to raise a child.”
There is also an Alpine proverb: “It takes a village to raise an alpine sandwich.”
I have many people to thanks for the ingredients that came together to create this delicious sandwich, including one who did so unwittingly. Ciabatta bread (thanks mom!), organic arugula, double smoked farmers’ cut bacon, tomato (thanks Ryan!), and lemonaise (thanks mystery roommate!). Superb texture and taste.
Wholegrain triangular bun, hot salami, hummus, Emmental and salad.
About the sandwich:
Wholegrain triangular bun, hot salami, hummus, Emmental and salad. Finished it off whilst enjoying a stunning ski tour up the Illecillewaet Valley. Meditated on the similarities between my sandwich and the majestic Mt Sir Donald.
From: Noah Bloom
Location: Matier Glacier, Duffey Lake Road, BC
About the sandwich:
When you get to Upper Joffre lake, it’s about time for sandwich #1. The end slice of the bread loaf makes for a lucky day. The Costco aged cheddar, rosemary ham, dijon, and crunchy lettuce make for a simple but inspiring alpine sandwich. We went on to summit Mt Taylor on a sunny and blissfully calm day, and then shred down 3700′ vertical in just a few minutes. Sweet ski.
From: Noah Bloom
Location: Mt Matier, Duffey Lake Road, BC
About the sandwich:
It was already the second Mount Currie Coffee Co sandwich of the day, after an early breakfast burrito throw-down in Pemberton. We took a break at treeline on our skin up to Vantage Ridge for an early lunch, something I’m never opposed to, under views of Mt Matier and Joffre. It must have been magic, but the snow higher up turned to smoke, as we hooted pow laps on Cheque’s in the Mail the rest of the day:
Roast Beef, bell pepper, avocado, lettuce, and cholula on sourdough
From: Jonathon Doherty
Location: Blackcomb Peak
About the sandwich:
With the recent bluebird days in BC, climbed Blackcomb Peak with the amigos to eat a delicious Roast Beef, bell pepper, avocado, lettuce, and cholula on sourdough sandwich before descending to shred Disease Ridge. Nothing beats a delicious sandwich on a mountaintop!
Homemade asiago cheese bread with ham and fresh Pemberton valley spring greens mix between swiss cheese slices
From: Breanne
Location: Mount Ronayne
About the sandwich:
Homemade asiago cheese bread with ham and fresh Pemberton valley spring greens mix between swiss cheese slices. The swiss cheese makes a perfect boundary between bread and greens to prevent soggy bread syndrome (SBS). Enjoyed beneath the still snow covered summit of Mount Ronayne after a dip in Tenas creek.
Turkey, Avocado. Honey Dijon on a French Loaf
From: Jonathan
Location: Mt. Matier, Duffy Lake Area, BC
About the sandwich:
Turkey, avocado, honey Dijon on a french loaf. It tasted simply incredible and gave us the energy needed to make the summit!
tomato, thickly sliced cucumber, extra fort armstrong cheddar cheese and aged black forrest ham
Location: Mt. Rhor
About the sandwich:
This sanny is on a french baguette smeared with butter surrounding a perfect home grown tomato, thickly sliced cucumber, extra fort armstrong cheddar cheese and aged black forrest ham which was prepared on site. This sandwich made the hike worth it. We were surrounded by Cayoosh glacier, Mt. Rhor and Marriot Mt. It made the rest of the crew and you jealous…
Finally I’m a Canadian Ski Guide! Having completed the ten day CSGA course and exam I felt comfortable naming this sandwich the ‘Guides Opinion’. Lets face it, some people know what they are doing in the mountains, some people know how to make a good sandwich…but only a rare few can do both properly. We had an incredible course with days of rope rescue, avalanche rescue, backcountry travel and even a Heli ski day in the Spearhead.
Lime & Herb Chicken Breast, Swiss, Bacon, Avocado, Baby Spinach, Mayo, Dijon. Boom Boom Boom.
