Transcript of Mica Heliskiing Brochure
“Run by skiers for skiers, Mica completely re-defines the parameters of deep powder skiing. I’ve not come across anywhere else like it.
First class accommodation, the best team in the industry and terrain that has everything in abundance, all plastered with some of the deepest, driest snow on the planet. Mica is my favourite place on earth to ski bar none.
If you really love skiing you have to find a way to come to Mica.” Richard Bentley, Guest
On the western slopes of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, there is a place where rugged peaks and gigantic glaciers are yours to discover. Deep powder fields come alive with every turn you make. Helicopters soar above old growth forests that beckon to be explored. At the end of each day, a luxury lodge nestled on the banks of the mighty Columbia River awaits.
It’s more than a heliskiing trip. It’s a journey to an untapped mountain paradise.
Experience the Magic of Mica
Nothing Comes Close
Truly. Enveloped in pristine wilderness north of Revelstoke British Columbia, Mica Heliskiing is situated in the heart of Canada’s legendary snowbelt. Accessible only by helicopter, we hold the key to 500 square miles of skiable terrain and 17,000 square feet of luxury mountain living. With only 20 guests per tour, we provide five-star hospitality and a personalized experience to each and every guest.
Small Groups, Big Country
We’ve spent over a decade dedicated to mastering the art of small-group heliskiing. Providing fully customized adventures to our guests is our specialty. With a 4:1 Guest to Guide ratio and nimble A-Star or Bell 407 Helicopters at your beck and call, nothing but the burn in your thighs will be holding you back from making fresh tracks as far as the eye can see.
Endless Terrain to Explore
Majestic peaks, glaciers, knife-edge ridgelines, pillows, and giant cedars decorate our high-altitude playground. Mica is located within the world’s furthest inland rainforest, meaning heavy precipitation refreshes our ski terrain consistently, adding up to 60 feet of powder snow each year. With eleven spectacular valleys to choose from, there is an endless array of ski terrain to explore.

“Superlatives can be hard to defend, but the stunning results of Mica’s bold departure from traditional log-cabin design, the remarkable art collection, the obsessive attention to detail, the metropolitan-hotel-quality rooms and
the dazzling location make this, in my mind, the finest lodge in Canadian backcountry skiing.” George Koch, 25 year ski journalist
