Heliski on the West Kootenays of British Columbia!
Nestled in the Selkirk Mountains of BC at an elevation of 5,400 feet, Snowwater Heli Skiing is set on 21 private acres of pure mountain serenity.
With a maximum of 12 guests at a time, Snowwater offers a truly unique experience. Whether you’re looking to unwind and relax, celebrate with friends, or create unforgettable family memories, they will go above and beyond to meet every need and ensure your stay is as enjoyable as it is memorable.
Mountains & Terrains
Snowwater Heli Skiing operates in the West Kootenays of British Columbia, a region renowned for its exceptional snow quality. Its unmatched consistency, abundant quantity, and feather-light texture make it highly prized by powder enthusiasts from around the globe.
The West Kootenays offer exceptional terrain, characterized by rugged mountains, deep valleys, and a mix of tree-lined slopes and expansive alpine bowls. The Selkirk and Monashee ranges dominate the landscape, providing varied terrain that caters to both intermediate and advanced skiers. Heliskiers can explore pristine powder on long descents, with glaciated peaks and untouched snowfields that stretch for miles. The dense forests at lower elevations provide shelter on stormy days, while higher elevations offer wide, open runs with breathtaking views.
The Package
Heli-skiing in the Kootenays with Snowwater Heli Skiing means skiing all day, every day, enjoying endless runs of untouched powder in every direction. With an annual snowfall of 40 feet and some of the most varied and exhilarating terrain on the planet, it’s an all-you-can-eat powder feast.
Snowwater Heli Skiing operates with just 3 groups of 4 guests, each guided by a private, professional guide. By limiting the service to only 12 guests at a time, Snowwater provides an unparalleled, personalized experience. Each guest is equipped with an airbag pack, shovel, probe, Mammut digital transceiver, personal radio, and comprehensive training on how to use it.
Snowwater flies in the incredible B3E-AStar helicopter, which allows you to land in breathtaking, remote locations. Your experience includes Unlimited Vertical: thereโs no cap on how much powder you can enjoy each day!
Why We Love Snowwater Heli Skiing
Unlimited powder buffet: light, bottomless, legendary!

Lodging
The lodge and Evergreen Spa sit on 21 private acres in the stunning Bonnington Range of the Selkirk Mountains, surrounded by forest beneath Snowwater Peak. Handcrafted from larch and fir timbers, the lodge features cosy rooms with heated floors. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted to provide both luxury and a true connection to the natural surroundings. On the top floor of the Evergreen Spa, Snowwater offers premium king suites with breathtaking views of the Valhalla Mountains.
The Evergreen Spa features a stainless steel hot tub and cold plunge with an outdoor fireplace, steam room, Swedish sauna, yoga/fitness studio, board room, retail space, massage services, and high-speed internet.
Guests enjoy three gourmet meals daily, along with a variety of sweet and savory snacks. The talented chefs craft innovative cuisine using impeccably sourced organic ingredients to create a fresh, flavorful dining experience!
Snowcat Backup
Given the unpredictable nature of weather and snow conditions during a heliski trip, Snowwater Heli Skiing is proud to offer a backup snowcat program to ensure you still get to ski or ride, even when the weather isnโt in your favor.
If it’s snowing too heavily to fly or the clouds have settled in, you simply jump into the snowcat and keep skiing right in the backyard, just minutes from the lodge. Once the skies clear, itโs easy to switch back to the helicopter. The snowcat departs right from the doorstep, providing access to steep, gladed tree runs close to home.
