Classic Heli Skiing

Purcell Mountains, BC, Canada

This 3 Run program is an excellent introduction to heli skiing for those new to the adventure, but still a great choice for those experienced heli-skiers looking for a more relaxed pace of day.

This full day of heli-skiing is best suited for those new to powder skiing/riding or with high-intermediate to low-advanced skiing/riding ability.

The program begins with a concise but thorough safety briefing to prepare you for a safe and enjoyable day in the mountains. Whether you are a first-timer or a veteran heli-skier, we ensure that you gain basic knowledge in helicopter and avalanche safety, including instruction on the use of an avalanche transceiver.

A hearty packed lunch is included with all daily packages and is enjoyed out in the field between heli-ski runs.

At the end of your day, you will be flown back to the day lodge to enjoy a complimentary après-ski meat and cheese platter. In front of a roaring fire, you can swap stories with fellow skiers/riders, review photos, and simply relax in the beautiful surroundings.
