The Future of Heli Skiing!
We’ve Partnered with Alpine Air Alaska, Girdwood’s Only Local Helicopter Charter Company, to provide backcountry drop-offs on state and municipal lands surrounding the Girdwood Valley.
Helicopter-accessed backcountry skiing has been a long-time dream in the Girdwood Valley, and we’re stoked to offer it for the first time this 2024/25 winter season!
