Nomads

Private heli, private lodge

Dream it, then ski it

What do you feel like skiing or riding today? Do you want to follow the snow conditions, or sample all the terrain has to offer? Why not both? With a Nomads trip, think of it as your personal guided heli-safari. One of the main draws of CMH Nomads is the multiple tenures and mountain ranges its skiable and ridable terrain spans. From your comfortable, private accommodation near the town of Revelstoke, BC, the tenures of CMH Revelstoke, Kootenay, and a handful of others are just a flight away.

Explore the Selkirk and Monashee mountain ranges, which together feature an immense variety of terrain to enjoy — everything from challenging to forgiving. If the weather is right, you may even get the chance to push further afield into the neighbouring Purcell range — home to CMH Bobbie Burns and the birthplace of heli-skiing, CMH Bugaboos. Your private helicopter opens up endless possibilities and allows you to share it all with up to eight of your closest friends (so choose wisely!)

CMH Nomads
Yours to explore

Tailored to you

Take your pick from a veritable buffet of terrain spanning multiple CMH tenures. When it comes to choice, you’re officially spoiled at CMH Nomads. From high alpine, open bowls and glaciers to naturally spaced tree skiing, there are plenty of options. Known for consistent pitch directly to the valley floor, the Selkirks are legendary as a venue for some of the best tree skiing in the world. On the other hand, the Monashees is home to the type of snow that will redefine your definition of ‘powder’. It is globally famous for the sheer volume of snowfall that coats fun, featured playgrounds and manageable pillow lines with deep stacks of snowpack. Throw the Purcells into the mix and you introduce multiple drainages with bold lines straight to the valley floor, combined with big, classic, alpine-style heli-skiing. With so much varied terrain, the style of skiing at CMH Nomads is easily matched to your group’s ability and interest. Imagine it, then go get it.
