Heli-Ski British Columbia from a Mega-Yacht
Winner of Outside Magazine’s 2006 Trip of the Year, this heli-skiing experience is simply sublime: the only operation in the world that departs from a luxurious megayacht, Absinthe. The world-famous terrain of the West Coast Mountain Range of BC is celebrated for its incredible powder and enormous glaciers, and accessible from Absinthe within just a few minutes by helicopter. After an adrenaline-pumping day, return to the yacht to enjoy the luxurious amenities of a five-star hotel, while surrounded by beautiful views of the fjords and coastal wildlife. Trips depart March and April. Maximum of 11 skiers.
