Heli-Skiing in the Pantheon Range

With an area that dwarfs any European resort to insignificance and reserved for just eight skiers or riders a week, British Columbia's Pantheon Range offers an unparalleled adventure and a pioneering feel unheard of at more commercial heli-ski operations.

All who come here are blown away by the scale and scope of this zone. It is not just the size and potential for heli-skiing and snowboarding that amaze but also the unspoiled purity. There are no clear-cuts, wildlife is abundant and there is almost no trace of human existence.

Epic Heli-Ski Terrain Meets Rustic Charm

The 5,000 sq km of terrain is primarily alpine with huge, long glacial descents and bowl after bowl of endless powder...and the climate is drier and cooler than the coast which makes for an abundance of cold, smoky powder snow.

Lodging is provided at Pantheon Heli Ranch, a warm, traditional, hand hewn log structure and a working guest and cattle ranch. The rooms are simple, comfortable and clean with fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. Bathrooms are shared. Food is very fresh, with much of it coming right from the ranch. Bread and pastries are baked fresh each day. Smaller groups are lodged at the equally charming Sand Creek Ranch.

The Lowdown

Himalayan-Style Mountains

These are British Columbia’s biggest and most spectacular mountains, with huge Himalayan-style vertical relief and some very long runs. Home to British Columbia's highest peak, Mt. Waddington (4,019 m), the region is humbling on a scale difficult to imagine and has been used as a backdrop by a number of high profile Hollywood films, including Martin Scorsese's 'Kundun' and Jean Jacques Annaud's 'Seven Years in Tibet'.

Private Lodges for Single Groups

With only 4/5 or 9 skiers a week skiing in a single group and staying at the relaxed and friendly Pantheon Heli Ranch or Sand Creek Ranch (for smaller groups) everything about the experience is intimate and personal.

Be a Pioneer

Skiing in the Pantheon Range offers up a pioneering feel that is rare to find and with much unexplored terrain still to discover there are ample opportunities to make first descents and put your name on a bit of skiing history.
