The trend of Heli-skiing is a craze amongst HNIs and of course, many Indians are big lovers of this adventure. Helicopter (quite obviously) plays a big role here in this off-trail, downhill skiing or snowboarding. Here’s more: Skiers board the helicopter and are carried to a landing zone on top of a peak on a mountain. Skis, snowboards and poles are generally carried in an exterior basket loaded and unloaded by a guide beforehand. What makes this sport so challenging is due to the fact that snow conditions keep varying. The skiiers are aware of the risks. However, with experienced pilots and certified guides, avalanche air-bags, and radios, the heliskiing experience is considered truly very daring in nature. Some of the top choices for heli-skiing with Indians is Alaska, Whistler (British Columbia) and Iceland. Himalayan regions are also truly amazing for this sport.
