We pack lunches and head out for a full day of backcountry bliss!  We will skin from the yurt (or use snowmobiles to bump into adjacent terrain) and enjoy the endless bounty of backcountry bowls, glades, meadows and chutes. When our legs have had enough we return to the yurt where your guides have a warm fire going and apres getting served up followed by dinner.
