Heliskiing News - Sept 2011

This is the sensation that draws people across continents: a sense of complete freedom, of finding your own route down remote virgin slopes, being alone in the wilderness
Tom Robbins- The Observer, October 9, 2006

Robert Mugabe Special

Buying your holiday with pounds sterling is becoming increasingly like trying to buy a house in London with Zimbabwe dollars - or perhaps a truck full of Vietnamese dong. To celebrate, we are offering all UK-based skiers and snowboarders a chance to re-visit slightly more favourable times....December the 29th 2008 to be precise, when one pound sterling bought you 1.77 Canadian dollars (versus the 1.58 at the time of writing).
