Exclusive Heliski with access to 5 Ranges in Alaska!
Third Edge Heli has chosen to position itself strategically in the middle of five mountain ranges. Opening up the options chasing weather and snow conditions will put you in the right place at the right time.
The terrain options are immense, and Third Edge guides know when and where to be. Expanding the options to follow the weather and snow patterns, Third Edge Guides have the expertise to know when and where to go for the best heli experience.
Mountains & Terrains
Alaska is a paradise for alpine skiing and snowboarding! With its scenic glacier runs, powder bowls, steep couloirs, spines, and wide-open faces, Alaska offers a variety of terrain suitable for all skill levels.
The coastal winter weather patterns in Alaska blanket the towering mountains with an abundance of maritime snow. When the weather systems move away, the snow cools and dehydrates at the surface, creating a velvety texture in the snow that feels like magic! This is possibly the best snow on the planet and allows you to make fast, wide-open turns, shredding on your dream lines.
Third Edge Heli offers exclusive heliski in Alaska, prioritizing finding the best snow quality, snow stability, and weather conditions across the mountain range lineup to deliver the best possible heli experience!
The Package
The small group sizes allow Third Edge Heli to customize the terrain and experience to exceed the guests’ expectations. The single-load private helicopter model ensures that the focus is entirely on you and your crew, maximizing your time on the snow by minimizing wait times and allowing you to go wherever the best conditions are each day.
Safety is the top priority: Third Edge Heli provides two guides per group, maintaining the highest safety standards in heli-skiing. Additionally, all guides carry cameras to capture your unforgettable moments on the mountain! This is truly an exclusive heliski experience in Alaska!
Why We Love Third Edge Heli
An 80% fly ratio (historically AK is closer to 50%)!
Five Mountain Ranges with plenty of options for all tastes and weather conditions!
Exclusive Heliski in Alaska with small groups and excellent guiding!

Lodging
Eagle Nest Lodge is a newly built, 6-bedroom lodge situated on the breathtaking bluffs overlooking the Knik Arm in Wasilla, Alaska. Despite its secluded feel and unobstructed views, the lodge is fully equipped and conveniently accessible, just a 10-minute helicopter ride or about a one-hour drive from Anchorage. Third Edge Helo selected this location for its central position, surrounded by five mountain ranges, making it the perfect hub for your heli-skiing adventure.
Whether you desire a massage, a Nordic sauna, a hot tub session, or an après cocktail by a cozy fire, Eagle’s Nest provides the comfort and service needed to rejuvenate you for your mountain adventures. The on-site team ensures a top-tier dining experience. The chefs and servers are highly trained and will customize menus to keep the group well-nourished and satisfied. All meals are prepared in-house, using fresh, local ingredients whenever possible.
Helicopters & Guides
Third Edge Heli operates with A-Star B3s and utilizes 2-3 helicopters per week. Each helicopter can accommodate three guests, two guides, and a pilot. The daily minimum flight time for our helicopters is 2.0 hours (HOBBS).
Third Edge Heli aims to provide trips that meet the 14-hour minimum. However, if you’re planning to shred long hours, additional flight time can be arranged.
Third Edge Heli is a guide-owned operation, and it has more than 70 years of experience guiding heliski trips in Alaska. Each of the guides has more than 10 years of mechanized helicopter guide experience, some have even 15 and have guided on several continents.
