Then…it’s off for some breathtaking heli-skiing! There’s a multitude of glacier runs which cascade on three different fjords, with amazing powder and startling scenery both vying for your attention. Vertical descents of up to 1200 miles, and absolutely pristine runs make for a truly out-of-this-world experience.
