Snow Conditions
Records show that during 75% of our season the snow conditions are excellent to good. However, you must be aware that helicopter skiing is not always perfect and conditions may occasionally be very challenging. Our guides strive to seek out the best conditions to be found on any given day.

Down Days
On average, it is only about one-half a day per week that conditions prevent us from skiing or snowboarding.
