Adventures in Heli-Skiing: The Greatest Powder Experience

For lovers of powder, helicopter skiing provides an experience that cannot be matched. For the whole day, visitors will carve their own sought-after routes on unspoiled, pristine backcountry terrain. For individuals who are new to the sport, our top-notch safety and avalanche-trained guides will choose routes with gentler grades. To participate, guests must be in good physical shape and at least an intermediate skier. It is advised that you practice on a variety of terrain types and snow conditions in the days before your trip.

Helicopters A-Star

All trips, whether multi-day or single-day, take place in the top-notch A-Star, which is designed and equipped for sightseeing and provides the finest passenger experience with the least amount of noise disruption. We also make use of the cutting-edge audio technology, which isolates the informative narration of the pilot from background noise. The A-Star is one of the market's most fuel-efficient helicopters and is built to meet Europe's stringent noise restrictions. In extremely hot or cold conditions, it is the preferred aircraft for use in air taxis, individual and commercial aviation, and public service applications. Renowned helicopter guides with the highest levels of safety training are offered by CMH. A certain number of heli-skiing metres or feet are included in every trip with CMH, based on the duration of the trip and the region you are visiting. Usually, a guided heli-skiing day consists of six runs and seven flights. Enjoy aprés ski at Snowbird's Cliff Lodge and spa access for unwinding following your trip home after each day of heli-skiing.

Individual Groups

Because of what they see in movies and the idea that heli skiing is only for hardcore mountaineers, many skiers are afraid to give it a try. The truth is that a broad spectrum of skiers and snowboarders may enjoy heli skiing. Skiers can select the runs that best fit their skill level on a range of immaculate slopes thanks to helicopter skiing. In order to maximise their time on the slopes and navigate the terrain, they can also benefit from having a personal guide. The sport of helicopter skiing is physically taxing. It is crucial that you work out using a programme that increases your strength and stamina in order to get ready for your vacation. For heli-skiing, you'll also need to pack the appropriate equipment. This includes a helmet, avalanche safety gear, and high-quality powder skis. Other necessary equipment, such as snow boots, outerwear, and thermal layers, will also be provided by your heliski operation. A heli-skiing package's cost varies according to the location, helicopter size, and number of days reserved.
