Cat Skiing Back-up

Northern Escape Heli-Skiing, with our location in BC's remote Northwest, has long been renowned for providing one of the deepest, most reliable, snowpacks on the planet and, between you and me, all that deep fluffy stuff doesn't fall from blue skies... It Snows up here and it's Deeper up here!

With all that snow comes some inevitability difficult flying conditions. Therefore, NEH is proud to offer Cat Skiing back-up to all of our heli skiing packages. Now, when the snow is falling hard and it's lying deep in the trees, you'll be enjoying some of the finest, deepest, powder skiing/boarding available thanks to our snowcat back up. Ski/board every day of your package – guaranteed!

Our Cat Skiing area was created out of some of our best tree skiing terrain and encompasses over 6,000 acres, that's nearly the size of Whistler and Blackcomb ski areas combined. It offers everything from steep trees to pillows and open bowls with an average run length of over 2,000 vertical feet.

Should the weather clear enough to fly while we are Cat Skiing, the helicopter will simply pick us up and we'll continue our day of deep powder skiing without interruption. Or, if we're heli skiing and the weather starts to turn for the worse, we will meet the snowcats and again continue our day seamlessly enjoying that deep powder. It's the best combination imaginable - Heli Skiing/Heli Boarding perfected!
