Deep Powder Skiing
in British Columbia
Heli Skiing was pioneered in the interior mountains of British Columbia Canada for one simple reason, deep powder snow. The consistent weather patterns that deposit large quantities of dry snow is the perfect recipe for world class champagne powder that heli skiers and heli boarders crave.

Deep Powder Skiing in Alberta & BC
The dramatic Purcell and Selkirk Mountains are found in Southern British Columbia. These ranges are Canada’s most famous powder skiing ranges and will surround you as you descend the powder-covered slopes.
Great Canadian Heli-Skiing is located halfway between Golden and Revelstoke BC, two renowned powder skiing towns. Our lodge is located just east of Glacier National Park’s Rogers Pass that once was a major barrier between East and West British Columbia due to rugged mountains and the deep snow that would constantly cover the railway. Now Rogers Pass is a Mecca for backcountry skiing because of its easy access to the alpine and deep powder skiing and boarding.
Deep Powder Heli Skiing Equipment
Great Canadian Heli-Skiing uses the ultimate deep powder seeking machines, the Astar B2 helicopter. The speed and power of these agile machines allows for easy access to locate the best conditions of the day. Often the helicopters are waiting for you, keeping pace with your skiing ability. When skiing conditions change the helicopters allow us to change locations with ease, re-locating to the best deep powder skiing available in the BC and Alberta Mountain Ranges.
To maximize your skiing enjoyment of the deep powder we provide powder skis and snowboards. The equipment is sized to maximize floatation in the deep snow, so that you can ski more vertical and maximize your holiday.
