Private Heli Skiing Packages at Yellow Cedar Lodge offer the exclusivity and flexibility of having your own helicopter waiting on only you and your group while maximizing your dollars by sharing the lodge, its amenities and the dining experience with the Classic Package heli ski guests.

Upon arrival at the lodge you will check into your rooms and meet for an informal orientation.  A light meal is followed by an introduction to our skiing program and the weeks’ schedule.

Your first morning is busy with several safety briefings. Your guide will provide you with instruction in the use of the Avalanche Transceiver and rescue equipment.
