Get Out of the Ski Resort Slump and into a Heli-Skiing Adventure!

There is nothing quite like gliding down a mountain after a dusting of fresh powder. Imagine having the freedom to curve around the mountain all alone, to take your own path, whether that means a slithery snake trajectory or to bomb straight down from the peaks. Soak in all the excitement until your heart feels like it might escape your ribs or revel in the views, the peace, and tranquility of the Selkirk Mountains.

Unfortunately, that’s not the reality at most resorts. The overcrowded resorts throughout the Rockies leave most enthusiast feeling frustrated and, quite frankly, bored. However, there are still people in the world that appreciate the natural beauty and excitement that British Columbia has to offer. Heli-skiing is for those looking to find a refreshing and exhilarating experience found only in the Rockies of British Columbia.

If you’re wondering how it works, heli-skiing takes you out of the stuffy, overrun resorts and places you on top of these mountains by way of helicopter. The ride up is sometimes just as thrilling as the ride down. This puts you even closer to the clouds where the snow is crisp and allows your small group of friends and family to enjoy nature as it was intended. No need to worry about long lifts that only herd you to the “top” of yet another loaded area for a short and unfulfilling ride. Instead of all that, you can feel as though you have the entire world to yourself.

One of the great benefits of this approach, apart from the adventure, is how simply it operates. Your schedule is a priority and your experience can be customized to the wishes of your group. You can find various packages to correspond to your particular schedule. With the transportation precision of the helicopter, adventurers have entry to otherwise inaccessible runs.

If you’re looking to invest in a fresh and stimulating experience that you’ll remember again and again, consider booking an adventure with a boutique operation like Great Canadian Heli Skiing. As well as enjoying the private mountain, you’ll still have access to cell phone service and Internet. Really, the sooner you can brag about your vacation, the better. Located near the river town of Golden, Great Canadian Heli Skiing in BC takes small groups of four up into the Purcell and Selkirk ranges. These ranges, part of the Kootenay Rockies, are known for their famous champagne powder. Experience the quiet, montane glades and vast fields of undisturbed powder. Great Canadian Heli Skiing at Kicking Horse is one company that takes the experience of the mountain seriously. Recreate that feeling of the wilderness on top of the world, and only a short drive from Calgary’s International Airport. Don’t waste your vacation sitting on a lift just to follow someone else’s tracks. Instead, carve your own way through the snow and enjoy the experience of a lifetime.
