Enjoy a 4-day heli-ski holiday in British Columbia, Canada, and stay in a cozy backcountry winter lodge.

Just north of Pemberton, BC, Whitecap Alpine is ideally situated to bear the brunt of snow-loaded storms as they move inland from the Pacific Ocean to the Coastal Range. A little cooler and drier than coastal areas, blower pow is a regular part of our routine at Whitecap.

Whitecap is located 75km northeast of Whistler and 50 km NE of Pemberton in beautiful British Columbia. The area offers 85 square km of terrain with a combination of east-west valleys and navigable ridge lines with space for big open turns leading into gladded trees and natural half pipes. This is the perfect destination for backcountry skiing and splitboarding.

We’ll split into groups and find the best terrain on days ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 meters. The professional guides know this area well and will take you to the best landscape available based on snowfall, safety, and group goals.

Certified ACMG Ski/Board guides
Three meals a day plus snacks, prepared by our private chef
Roundtrip helicopter flights from Darcy Staging Area
Accommodations in a yurt or sleeping lodges, with bedding and pillows included
Alcoholic beverages and soft drinks available for purchase at the lodge (you may also bring your own)
