Selkirk Tangiers Heli Skiing

For over four decades, Selkirk Tangiers Heli Skiing has been guiding and skiing the Selkirk and Monashee Mountains. Founded in 1978 by Peter Schlunegger, who pioneered the introduction of helicopter skiing to the Revelstoke area. With over 18 meters / 60 feet of snow annually and 500,000 acres of alpine meadows, open glaciers and old growth rain forests to choose from, endless skiing adventures and found memories that will last a lifetime await.

With over 400 established runs from towering peaks to sheltered valley floors, the team will show you a vast diversity of heli-terrain options and you’ll find reliable snow combined with unique terrain across the Selkirk and Monashee Mountains.

Here are the stats at a glance:

• Half-a-million acres of terrain
• 93 km long by 75 km wide
• 400 named runs with unlimited landings and pick-ups
• Runs up to 2,200 vertical metres
• Bordering Mount Revelstoke and Glacier National Parks

When planning a heli-ski trip, you can warm up at Revelstoke Mountain Resort with North America longest vertical drop of  1,713 metres / 5,620 feet.
