Couched between Utah’s powder-heavy Alta and Snowbird resorts, this knowledgeable heli-skiing operator has been leading incredible group and private backcountry trips since 1973. Everything from ski rentals and helicopter orientation to morning wake-up calls, breakfast, and lunch is included in the price. To help ensure safety, typical excursions include two ski guides, one leading in front of the group and the other trailing behind (they also help ensure that you experience the best untrammeled powder in the Wasatch Mountains). The company also offers heli-skiing trips to Greenland and South America.
