AREA ATTRACTIONS

The onboard helicopter whisks skiers to one of the best heliskiing terrains on earth and the yacht gives skiers access to a new bay everyday. Unlimited helicopter flying time in BC's Coast Range is a big lure for passionate heliskiers. Famous for the abundance and quality of its stable snow, this untouched terrain offers limitless runs, open glades and vast bowls, surrounded by massive glaciers. A certified heliski guide and a helicopter pilot fly guests in a B2 A-Star helicopter to explore untracked terrain.

Heli-ski Dates & Rates - The 12-week heliski season runs from February 5 to April 30, with all-inclusive 8-day individual package rates starting from USD $11,995 per person. Skiing partners pay a half rate, while non-skiing partners receive even more attractive rates. Private charters can also be booked for groups.
