Purcell Héli-skiing

PURCELL HELISKIING

For one day or many, join a group for an unforgettable day of first tracks and fresh backcountry powder.

Their innovative program is unique in the industry, offering in-the-field group customization and the best guide-to-guest ratio out there to give you the freedom to ski at your pace. They adapt to you.

Their groups are made up of 9 guests and 3 guides, and all 12 fly out to the terrain together. Once you’ve started skiing, the group can be split according to participant ability, so they can form mini-groups, each with their own guide, plus a tail guide for sweep and safety. No waiting for those that are too slow for you; or, no pressure from those faster than you.

It’s a full day program starting with a concise but thorough safety orientation, then a thrilling flight takes you to their massive operating area where you’ll ski/ride five runs of fresh tracks in backcountry heaven. Five may not be enough!
