We don’t farm snow…we ride it! Just you, three companions, your guide and a million acres of towering peaks deep in the Canadian wilderness. We have giant alpine bowls, runs of up to 2,300 vertical metres (7,500 feet), endless steep tree-skiing and the world’s best “pillow” runs. From beginner to expert, Mica Heliskiing has the perfect terrain for every level of skier or boarder.
We combine the world's best terrain with an annual cumulative snowfall of 12 to 18 metres (that’s 40 to 60 feet!) of dry Rocky Mountains powder. The result is absolutely the best heliskiing and heli boarding on the planet.
"The best time of my life twice now! I cannot get the grin off for month's afterwards. The terrain, the incredibly deep dry snow, the professionalism of the guides, pilots and staff make for an unparalleled skiing and boarding experience. Without exaggeration, the nearest to Nirvana a skier or boarder can go."
"I knew the stats and heard the hype--a huge, awesome tenure on the western side of the Rockies; seven drainages and 1,000,000 acres of massive peaks and glaciers--but I still wasn't prepared for our first drop off. Looking east toward 11,000-foot Mt. Clemenceau and it's 7,000-foot runs was like staring into the heart of the Swiss Alps; the heinous, fluted peak in our faces was pure Alaska; and elsewhere lurked elements of the Coast Range, Selkirks, and Himalayas. In one circling gaze Mica blew the doors off any other B.C. Interior heli op."
“If there was a heaven for snowboarders, this would be it. Its like a natural ‘snowpark’ – bumps, hits, pipes, everything you could ask for, and all just natural terrain. The most perfect tree riding you can imagine – steep and deep, with old growth trees perfectly spaced, insanely beautiful terrain, and epic snow. It’s what my dreams used to be made of - now it’s my greatest memories. Can’t wait til next time! Oh-yeah, did I mention that no-fly days were non-existent at Mica. Because the terrain is so varied and had lots of tree riding, we were able to get in epic riding on days that would have been no-flies at some of the other places I’ve been. I’ve been riding in BC for the last 8 years; my last trip was to check out Mica – and it was definitely the best yet.”
