Now I'm going to quote Skiing Magazine's powder specialty skis review:
"If you can legitimately use this ski for everyday skiing, you're probably a
heli guide. For the rest of us, these skis are reserved for two-foot dumps
or more"
Here they were talking about true powder skis with the waist W=110-138cm.
Oh, BTW, the best in Skiing Mag's annual tests (at Snowbird, of course) is

发帖数: 472 | 5 getting that powder in the clip most likely requires hike-up since
resort fresh get tracked up every morning. Another huge advantage of
Snowbird and Alta is their mostly not so steep terrain which
allows the resort managers happily open vast footages of untreated
powder to the public...
Tahoe is also snowing hard now, even though on radar map
the big wet dump had pretty much skipped
heading towards Utah! Right now it is covering Ruby
mountain in the middle where heli-skiers are probably having

发帖数: 472 | 6 Indeed Mt. Rose is very special to me. I should ski there in the morning
instead of afternoon next year.
As for most liked resorts:
1. Squaw/AlpineMeadow area
2. Mt. Rose area
3. Snowbird/Alta area
4. JH/Grand Targee/Big Sky area
No particular order here, but a set with which I will be all set for the
winter. I would be very happy if I only ski in these resorts. They are all I
need. And I need them all. Going to other resorts will be a luxury to me.
Most wanted resort:

The numbers are staggering though:
"Our operating area encompasses approximately 15,000 square kilometres of
terrain, granted under Licenses of Occupation from the British Columbia
government."
15,000 sqkm?!! HOLY COW...
To put that into perspective - SNOWBIRD resort is 2500 acres, which is about 10 sqkm. Whistler/Blackcomb combined is 8200 acres, which is about 33 sqkm...
15,000 sqkm... mind boggling... |

发帖数: 658 | 16 不推荐年纪大的有家庭的去 有相当危险度
推荐带上ABS背包 雪崩时候可以拉开保命
滑前检查看有没有雪崩危险 和想好滑行路线..是怎样滑下来..
如遇雪崩尽量靠边..或直行走在拉开abs包
建议4人去 便宜..可以照应 |

那天有人说智利的heli ski更便宜，也很爽
不过估计加上机票也未必更合算了 |

啥水平才能去？看他们介绍材料说， advanced intermediate就能参加
有人去过没？
是不是必须powder技术超级好才值得，否则就是一路strugle powder了？
随便问问，没说要去 |

发帖数: 472 | 22 nice! you could also demo their skis in one of the good days.
They also have snowcat skiing at big sky, which could be more fun than heli-

发帖数: 408 | 23 3 day or 5 day pass?
Be prepared to pay more for added vertical feet. Their website quotes 3 day
for 40K feet for a much higher price. I wonder how many heli rides can 20000
feet provide. Squaw's vertical drop is about 5000ft. You will have about 4-
5 runs. |

发帖数: 17993 | 27 我研究过了，25000 feet是6到7趟的，这个也一般是一天的Heli ski trip。价钱一般
正常是$1200,所以costco卖的还是有百分之十几到二十的折扣的。 |

发帖数: 1327 | 34 it is an easy argument that only a crack that with similar size with a
certain person's head or helment can get this person stuck there.
Assuming that there are different sizes of cracks, not wearing a helmet
doesn't reduce the risk of getting jamed. |

发帖数: 94654 | 44 相对而言，什么事情不能搞绝对化。我没计算你说的那个数字。不知道是不是只有跑到
阿拉斯加heli ski才好达到？在inbound，总之有那些等lift，上lift的overhead，一
