We did not operate today due to weather. This storm cycle has been impressive so far, dropping 14-24" of new snow. Things are looking up, with two more shortwaves expected throughout the weekend.
Friday, 1-10-14 if weather allows we will be in Cardiff, Days, Silver, and possibly the PC ridge line. We will also have a private charter in American Fork/Cascade circuits.
- 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!
