I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question but heli-skiing has been the #1 adventure activity on my bucket list for 25-30 years but quite frankly, my wife wasn't good enough in powder to join me and I had no friends willing to splurge on the activity. Once I hit 50, I figured the idea was kaput but the last two seasons have been powder-tests for me and the fire has been re-ignited. Then, out of the blue, a newer mountain biking friend said he wants togging 2025 so it's game on!!
This friend has a friend who has gone on trips with Snowwater outside of Nelson, Canada and is already booked for 2024 so that's where we may end up but I'm up for any & all advice you can throw at me. I've already realized costs have nearly doubled but Snowwater is on par price-wise with most programs, has stellar reviews and what I like most is they have plenty of tree skiing options in their terrain...with snowcat back-up if we can't fly. With Snowwater, we'd do a 4 day trip but I'm thinking about doing 1 day with my son next February when we're in Whistler. There's just so many companies up that way, it's hard to figure out the best deal and if there's any to avoid altogether...
