Friday as expected it dumped- great skiing at Alta- no windows for helicopter skiing.
Saturday again we probably will not fly because it is going to be dumping... If something really weird happened and the sky parted. We would definitely try to fly into the NPC- Mineral, Cardiff, Days, Silver, Grizzly, or White Pine. The second helicopter would likely do a run in American Fork on the way to Cascade and the Canyons helicopter would likely do a run in Box canyon on the way to the Bountiful Sessions or just head to American Fork. This would of course all be dictated by the weather and this plan could change in an instant. Call us if you want to talk about it. 801-742-2800
PS. Please enjoy the powder!

- Powderbird
- Based at Snowbird and Canyons Ski Areas, Powderbird Helicopter Skiing operates throughout the beautiful Wasatch Mountains of Northern Utah.
- Powderbird provides guided access for the general public on specific permitted portions of the Uinta Wasatch Cache National Forest. All of our operations occur within multiple use areas that are intended to be shared by a variety of users. In order to facilitate this sharing Powderbird posts information noting the main drainages in which we will likely operate as well as areas where we will not be operating in order to help other backcountry users in their decisions. Although we take dozens of skiers into the backcountry each day we use multiple helicopters to spread out our operations from Ogden to Provo in order to limit our use of popular and congested areas. We do not operate in Big, Little or Mill Creek Canyons (Tri-Canyon Area) on any Sundays, and most Mondays. Weather permitting we generally operate at least one helicopter somewhere in the Tri-Canyon Area the other days of the week. Since 1973, Powderbird has offered some of the most exciting helicopter skiing in Utah and around the world. Our staff and qualified guides work to ensure that you have an amazing time. Visit our website or call us at 801-742-2800 to make a reservation. We look forward to skiing with you!
