What's included
Accommodation
A trip to CMH includes your stay at a well-appointed remote or in-town lodge, as well as full use of its facilities like saunas, hot tubs, morning stretch classes, and exercise rooms.
Note: If you’re joining us at CMH Purcell, accommodation is not provided or included. Guests arrange their own lodging in the mountain town hub of Golden, B.C.
Food & beverage
There’s a saying here at CMH, ‘If you haven’t eaten in two hours, something's wrong.’ The food and beverage experience is as legendary as the heli-skiing, and all your meals, snacks and select non-alcoholic beverages are included as part of your trip.
Transportation
We provide you with fully escorted transportation in our comfortable coach buses to and from either Calgary International Airport or Kelowna International Airport, depending on your chosen CMH destination. All of our lodges include the option to self-drive. Ask our team about additional custom transportation options, including a private driver, charter airplane flight or heli-bump.
Certified Guides
Safety comes first at CMH, which includes world-renowned guiding from professionals who know the mountains best. Our guides are certified by the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) and/or the International Federation of Mountain Guides Association (IFMGA).
Vertical
Every trip at CMH includes a certain amount of metres/feet of heli-skiing. The included amount is based on the length of your trip, the CMH area in which you’re skiing, and/or the program you’ve chosen. For example, a 7-day Signature Trip at CMH includes 30,500 m / 100,000 ft of heli-skiing.
Safety training
All guests receive snow safety training upon arrival at CMH. No matter how many times you’ve heli-skied with us or the number of vertical feet you’ve notched, our guides will take you through the use of avalanche transceivers and general helicopter safety before heading out into the field.
CMH safety pack
Alongside your training, we provide you with all the necessary snow safety equipment. In your pack, you’ll find an avalanche transceiver radio, shovel and probe.
Skis & poles
Our destinations are stocked with tried-and-tested powder skis and poles. We know this equipment performs well in our backcountry terrain, and we highly recommend leaving your skis at home and using ours instead. You must bring your own ski boots. If you are joining us for a Ski Touring or Fusion trip, you must bring all your own touring equipment.
Snowboards
We have a select number of high-quality boards available to use. These brands are ideal for the deep, light snow found at our lodges. Please note that you must reserve a snowboard before your trip. Alternatively, riders may bring their own board to use. All riders must bring their own snowboard boots.
