CMH has made this dream come true.

This together with cozy CMH lodges out in the wilderness, where our guests live in a relaxed environment.<\/p>\n<h5>Heliskiing from 12 lodges in the Columbia Mountains<\/h5>\n<p>We offer heli skiing from our amazing lodges: Adamants, Big Horn, Bobbie Burns, Bugaboos, Cariboos, Galena, Gothics, Kootenay, Monashees, Nomads, Revelstoke and Valemount. Our wilderness areas in the Columbia Mountains of British Columbia cover an area equivalent to a third of Switzerland.<\/p>\n<h5>Skiing adventure in alpine wilderness<\/h5>\n<p>After a day of skiing out in beautiful alpine scenery, our guests relax in comfortable lodges with hot tubs, saunas, apr\u00e8s-ski snacks and dinner prepared by world-class chefs.

Bell 407 is used in the areas where we have programs for smaller groups of 4-5 ski guests and for private groups of 4-10 ski guests. The Bell L3 is used as a service helicopter in all areas, for lunch transports out in the terrain to our ski guests, for flights with our safety guides and for special transports.<\/p>\n<p>Our pilots are trained to fly in mountainous terrain. Our guests undergo a thorough safety instruction before starting to fly the helicopter.<br \/>\nAll helicopters have their own mechanic stationed at all lodges. Our helicopters are equipped with radios for communication between pilots, our mountain guides, base station in our lodges, all CMH areas and external resources. Alpine's helicopter base is located in Kelowna, where the helicopters regularly undergo complete maintenance programs.<\/p>\n<p>We will be happy to send you our heliskiing guide and tell you more about heliskiing in Canada.<br \/>\nCall us on <a href=\"tel:+4687161190\">+46 (0)8 716 1190<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>To see the price list, click here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadianmountainholidays.com\/trip-grid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PRICES<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-626-2\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-626-2-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-626-2-0-0\" class=\"widget_text so-panel widget widget_custom_html panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><style>\n\t.frontish {position:relative;top:200px;}\n\t.fronth1 {color:#fff;position:relative;top:260px;font-weight:700;font-size:64px;text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(51,51,51,0.75);}\n\t.frontbutton {\n\t\tposition:relative;top:280px;\n\t\tfont-size:24px;\n\t\tfont-weight:600;\n\t\tpadding:4px 12px 5px;\n\t\tbackground-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.0);\n\t\tborder: 3px solid #fff;\n\t\tborder-radius:3px;\n\t\tcolor:#fff;}\n\t.frontbutton:hover {padding:5px 16px 6px;color:#fff;background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0.5);text-shadow: 0px 1px 2px rgba(51,51,51,0.75);}\n\t.sow-nav-links {display:none !important;}\n\t@media only screen and (max-width: 960px) {\n\t\t.frontish {position:relative;top:230px;width:50%;}\n\t\t.fronth1 {color:#fff;position:relative;top:120px;font-size:38px;font-weight:600;}\n\t\t.frontbutton {color:#fff;position:relative;top:120px;font-size:19px;padding:0 auto;}\n\t\t}\n\t@media only screen and (max-width: 780px) {.frontish {position:relative;top:110px;width:50%;}}\n<\/style><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CMH Heli-Skiing Helicopter skiing was started in 1965 by Hans Gmoser, the founder of CMH A skier&#8217;s dream is pristine ski terrain with fresh powder snow and no lift queues.
