We had a superb week – great stability making up for lack of fresh snow initially then a decent amount fell without increasing avalanche danger. Dave found us two amazing unski-ed/ unnamed runs.

Heliskiing in Canada
Endless mountains, huge snowfall, decades of experience and easy access…
Canada is the second biggest country on the map, and one of the least densely populated, so it’s perfect for heliskiing.
The westernmost province of British Columbia is among the world’s leading winter adventure destinations. It has two major mountain ranges – the Coast Mountains along the western edge, and the Canadian portion of the Rocky Mountains to the east.
With huge annual snowfalls, dramatic, unspoiled landscapes, excellent facilities and abundant off piste skiing opportunities, Canada is the perfect destination for a heli ski, cat ski or heliboarding adventure.
Getting there is easy, with daily flights direct to Vancouver or Calgary from around the world and many options for onward connection by road or air to your destination.

Heliskiing and cat skiing in Canada
It’s easy to see why Canada is the world’s favourite location for heli skiing and cat skiing. Try our group trips, Heli Immersion, Small Group or Private Heliskiing options.
The Canadians invented these activities. They have decades of experience and the widest choice of destinations. Plus there’s the small matter of reliable annual snowfall of 40-60 ft (10-20m).
But reliability doesn’t in any way equate with being dull. The terrain is vast and hugely varied. The operators, equipment and safety standards are all first class. You’re almost guaranteed to have the time of your life.
Heliskiing resorts in Canada
There are dozens of powder ski resorts in Canada, offering great terrain for both on and off piste skiing.
Thanks to huge annual snowfalls and excellent facilities, resorts like Whistler (Coast Mountain Range) and Revelstoke (Selkirk Mountains) are ideal for a warm-up before you embark on your heli ski or cat ski adventures. They’re also an ideal base for multi-activity powder skiing.
