Heliskiing
The average skier rarely considers a heli-skiing trip as a reality. The idea of the backcountry can often intimidate those after watching ski movies where skiers jump 50 plus foot cliffs and ski the tightest lines imaginable after being dropped off by a helicopter. This is the extreme side of heli skiing and is reserved for the movies only.

Heli-ski adventures allow the average to expert skier or snowboarder to have safe access to the backcountry for an unbelievable skiing experience. The helicopter tour is an adventure in itself, leaving the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and traveling above the valley floor to the pristine snow fields of the Snake River and Palisades mountain ranges. Heli-ski trips include a guide to lead a team, no more than five persons, and these guides are trained to find the best ridable snow available in the area. Top of the line gear is provided, including avalanche transceivers and fat ski boards are available if desired.
The ticket can be expensive ($775 per person) but it is also arguably the most adventurous backcountry skiing and the quality is definitely worth the price of admission. Because of its remoteness, it is unlikely that the peaks reserved for heli use will be occupied by any one other than yourself. If you have the means, this is definitely the way to go to access "the goods", avoid the crowds and have the entire mountain with all of its untracked snow to yourself.
