You may not have had quite the decent ski season you were expecting and deserving. Did you get as many fresh tracks as you would have hoped? If not, we can offer you a last chance to get that fix!
NEW: Heli Ski in Greece
The heli ski world has just gotten bigger, and what a jewel the latest addition is. When most think about Greece, they think beaches and lots of sun, but what most do not realize is that Greece is a very mountainous country, it gets a lot of snow in the winter, and now, we’re bringing you the chance to heli ski it!
2014 Alaska Tech Heliski Tour

Uplift and away to Valdez, Alaska, the home of extreme heli skiing for a week of epic Valdez Heli Skiing from April 13-19.
Operator News
Heli ski season is in full swing. We have news from most of our operators that most of their 2014 seats are filled, and first clients face shots and dreams have been fulfilled. However, if you haven’t booked your trip yet (particularly for Alaska or Sweden), don’t despair, we can get you set up quickly.
The Early Bird Catches The Worm
We know that real life gets in the way, but last season a very small number of our clients, left their run too late to find a suitable heli ski trip. Many of our top-of-their-game operators are up to 3/4 full by the time next years bookings roll around from repeat bookings. This is great for the operator, (and you want to be heli skiing at these popular operators). But it’s harder for busy clients to book a trip of a lifetime.
Fall in the Andes
As winter winds down in the Northern Hemisphere, that can only mean one thing down under- the Chilean and New Zealand heli skiing season is near. Leaves are changing color, the tundra is preparing for winter, and temperatures in the High Andes are dipping into the 30’s (that’s almost zero celcius) at night.

Bighorn, A Big Hit this Winter
This luxurious mountain home was designed in the style of a Scottish hunting lodge, and was constructed with nothing but the best materials, design and Canadian prowess. It uniquely provides you with the option of being picked up by helicopter from the pad outside the building, and heli skiing with one of Total Heliski’s local operators, or doing your powder turns at Revelstoke, North America’s longest vertical ski resort

The Himalayan Connection
The Himalayas have long been known around the world as the home of the highest peak in the world – Mount Everest. But they also comprise of a number of other high mountains, all of which make the range one of the most daunting in the world. Consider this: The highest peak outside Asia stands at just under 23,000 feet while the Himalayas alone have over 100 peaks in excess of 23,500 feet! The Himalayas have thus created a natural barrier that has resulted in a unique culture in these high hills.
Encore La Niña
Are you wondering where your next (or first) big heli ski experience is going to be? The answer could be in – wait for it – the weather channel! Seriously! Ocean currents and surface temperatures could really spice up your heli skiing trip this season. This is all about the phenomena called La Niña of course.
