FOR EVERY MOUNTAIN GUIDE, HELICOPTER, PILOT and EMERGENCY PERSONAL, SAFETY IS ALWAYS THE #1 PRIORITY
MOUNTAIN SAFETY
Guides and safety teams continuously monitor the weather and snow conditions. They meet each morning and evening to discuss snow stability and terrain. This information is pooled and shared across BC with other professionals. In spite of the operators’ best efforts, there are inherent risks and hazards associated with helicopter skiing that are beyond the control of the operator. It is important to follow the directions of your guide at all times.
GUIDES
Guides are chosen not only for their guiding skills and qualifications, but also for their enthusiastic and outgoing personalities. They are professional guides who have passed a series of comprehensive examinations to qualify them as members of the A.C.M.G. or the U.I.A.G.M., the recognized Canadian or International Mountain Guide Associations. Guides participate in yearly refresher courses.
HELICOPTER and PILOTS
Guests enjoy the comfort and reliability of the helicopter chosen by the operator. Pilots are chosen to meet the same high standards as the guides and have an abundant level of experience flying in the mountains. On-site team of engineers provides helicopter maintenance.
EMERGENCIES
Continuous radio contact between the pilots, guides and the lodge ensures reliable communication in the event of an emergency. The guides carry radio & emergency equipment in their packs, additional equipment is carried in the helicopters.
