Choose Your Adventure
Your best day ever is waiting.
Once you have a range of dates in mind, it’s time to think about what kind of experience you’re looking for. Do you prefer a smaller or larger group? Are you hoping to explore most of the tenure over several days, or is your schedule more limited?
Our packages are organized by machine type and duration. The A-Star is our smaller aircraft, flying with groups of up to four guests. The Bell 212 is larger, flying with groups of up to ten. You can join us for a single day or up to a full week.
There’s a common myth that heli skiing is reserved for extreme skiers or professionals. The reality is, we have a variety of programs designed for strong advanced skiers and riders, as well as more seasoned experts.
With over 500,000 acres of terrain and more than 400 runs, our operations are guided by the weather and snow conditions. Some days you’ll be skiing mellow glades, and on others, you may spend the day among the trees. When everything aligns, we get to experience that magic skiing from alpine peaks all the way down to the valley floor in perfect powder.
Make the most of your heli ski adventure
- Be honest in your ability assessment and choose the right package
- Engage in a fitness program 8-10 weeks prior to your trip
- Book a heli skiing prep lesson at Revelstoke Mountain Resort
what to expect
This is true mountain skiing. There are no ropes, fences, or markers—just vast, open terrain. Your guide will lead the way as you navigate rollovers, alpine bowls, and natural features. Visibility can vary, especially in the trees where you might only see a few metres ahead. Snow conditions shift with elevation and aspect, so each run offers something new.
Choosing Your Level
Advanced
“I can ride advanced terrain and trees comfortably and in control at higher speeds. I enjoy riding in powder and have experience. I am physically fit enough for multiple full days on the mountain.”
Recommended Packages:
- 1-Day Adventure
- 3-Day Classic Package
- Private Packages or Pinnacle Packages (perfect for groups looking for full flexibility)
Expert
“I’m used to skiing off-piste or in the backcountry and may already have heli or cat skiing experience. I’m confident on advanced terrain, can read the terrain and make playful decisions while staying within my limits. I have experience in a range of powder conditions (from blower to heavy) and have the fitness to ski multiple days at a steady pace.”
Recommended Packages:
Expert +
“I can confidently ski or ride anything, fast and all day. I’m highly experienced in powder and backcountry terrain and am comfortable hitting features or drops when conditions allow. I ski or board regularly and have strong technique and fitness that allow me to perform all day without fatigue.”
A Note from STHS
Expert + guests often have a background in the ski industry. Many are patrollers, ski instructors, or grew up racing. Most live in mountain towns and have access to a variety of terrain.
Recommended Packages:
All of our packages are a great fit for you. Just keep in mind that unless you book a private group, we can’t always tailor the day entirely to your level. Sometimes you’ll have a perfect match with your group. Other days might move at a slower pace, but that’s all part of the heli skiing experience.
