Our Most Popular Program

Your only concern will be to enjoy the skiing and boarding while racking up the vertical.

Enjoy the same legendary terrain and luxury accommodation as the private heli groups, but with a set amount of skiing included. The guides will make all the hard decisions so you can relax and enjoy the powder. 

Trip Highlights

  • Ski on your arrival and departure days thereby maximizing your vacation time!
  • Only three groups per helicopter
  • Small cohesive groups of skiers insures a better ski experience
  • Luxury accommodation at the Tweedsmuir Park Lodge in Private Chalets
  • Enjoy gourmet meals and fine wines

An instant classic

Heli skiing or boarding based on a set amount of vertical included is the most common program in the heli skiing industry. The main advantage from the client's point of view is that you know what you are getting and how much.

These tours can be booked as an individual, as a couple, or as a small group. We have also had large groups book up the whole lodge. If you prefer to ski with just your friends then the magic number to book is a group of four as that exactly fills one load in the helicopter. On the other hand, if you are traveling solo, then we will match you with others. Its a great way to meet new friends.

All groups will meet up for lunch and at that time the loads can be reformatted in case clients want to switch it up. 

The most common trip duration is 7 nights, and during the February to March high season this is the standard. However, in January and April, we can accommodate shorter or longer trip durations.
