Silvertip Heli-Skiing delivers one of the most exclusive heli-skiing experiences in British Columbia.
Deep in the Cariboo Mountains of BC, yet surprisingly easy to reach from Vancouver, with just 8–20 guests at a time, you’ll enjoy world-class powder skiing with the personal touch only an independent lodge can offer. All transfers are included in your heli-skiing trip.

Terrain, ability and who it is for

- If you have skied regularly over the past few seasons, and are comfortable in all types of terrain (bumps, treed runs, traverse slopes, etc), heli-skiing should be the next best thing for you.
- Our tenure spans alpine bowls, glacier runs, and legendary tree skiing—all just minutes from the lodge.
- The Silvertip 1440 sq. Km ski tenure is right outside the lodge front door, offering amazing heli-skiing within seconds of your morning departure.

This 7,250 sq. ft. triple A-frame lodge features soaring ceilings, eight guest rooms with private en-suites, plus two more in a separate lakefront cabin. A spa chalet with sauna, steam room, massage room, and outdoor hot tub adds comfort after big days on the mountain.
Getting There
