CHUGACH POWDER GUIDES

Day Skiing Details

The tried and true Chugach experience, we’ve been offering our day skiing trips for 25 years. Day ski trips are reserved up to 3 groups of 4 per helicopter.  A 4th standby group can be added as conditions permit. Day skiing includes 16,000-18,000 vertical feet which is generally 6-10 runs. Partial days occur when weather doesn’t permit a full day of flying, and guests are refunded $100 per 1000 feet below the guarantee. Day skiing reservations can be made from early February through Late April. A great option for a first time bucket lister or a seasoned heli skier. Our single day skiing adventures access some of the best ski and snowboard terrain in Alaska.
