Stellar bags another Cover shot!

on Monday, 14 November 2011. Posted in Heliskiing News

This time it's the cover of Transworld Snowboarding


Stellar Heliskiing is on a roll this season. Last month they ended up on the coveted cover of Powder Magazine and this month they are featured on the cover of Transworld Snowboard Magazine! We recall Jason from Stellar telling us late last season that he was hosting a few film crews that were bound for Alaska but instead stayed around the Kootenays. We can see why...

The above video is a segment from the Transworld that they are doing for each cover shot. It tells a little bit more of the story of how the cover came to be. It also shows just how big the terrain is at Stellar Heli!

Another great shot guys. Congrats on the exposure!

Canadian Mountain Holidays shows what they have to offer in the British Columbia Interior


We just had the chance to see Warren Miller's 62nd film ...Like There's No Tomorrow. One segment that really stuck out to us was the amazing blower pow from British Columbia's Monashee Mountains. Canadian Mountain Holidays is legendary in the heli-skiing world, and this sneak peak shows you why.

Stellar HeliSkiing Make the cover of Powder Magazine

BC's youngest heli skiing operation gets a boost from Powder Magazine

Stellar-Heliskiing-Powder-Magazine-Cover
Ever since we were kids we dreamed about getting our picture in Powder Magazine. What is the next best thing to getting yourself on the pages of Powder? Having your heliskiing company featured on the cover! Jason Remple, founder of Stellar Heliskiing in Kaslo BC did just that with this awesome shot of Chad Sayers. The pic was taked during a window of sunshine in the middle of last season's epic La Nina storm cycle. The man behind the camera was Jordan Manely (Sherpas). Great shot from a great operation. We are looking forward to checking out Stellar this season and bringing you more photos, stories and videos of the experience.

If you are looking for an amazing experience in the mountains, consider Stellar Heli Skiing this season. Their rates are reasonable and their terrain looks epic. We had the pleasure of skiing with Jason as our guide on another trip last season and we can tell you, he is an excellent guide. We also just got word that our good friend Martin (formerly of Valhalla PowderCats) has joined the Stellar team. With another La Nina season around the corner, incredible terrrain and a guiding staff that is second to none, Stellar will be the place to heliski this season!

Last Frontier Heliskiing teases us some more...

on Friday, 30 September 2011. Posted in Heliskiing News

This video makes us want to travel to the northern corner of this great province.


Last Frontier Heliskiing has come up with another fantastic video illustrating what makes them awesome. I mean come on, the largest terrain in the world! Who doesn't want to go explore that? There is a shot near the end of the video that zooms out and gives you a pretty good idea on the massiveness of their terrain..and that is just one area! On their website they say the make the most out of every run. Dropping you off at the highest possible point the alpine and ending near the bottom of the valley in the trees. You get big open powder fields, bowls full of deep northern fluff, tree skiing amongst large northern evergreens and terrain features to play on everywhere.

We hope you enjoy this little teaser for Last Frontier Heli Skiing as much as we did. Maybe you will even book a trip and get up there this season. If you do, tell them we sent ya!

PS - Check out the massive cheese wheel at around 2:30 in the video....awesome!

Northern Escape Heli-Skiing - It's Deeper Up Here!

on Thursday, 22 September 2011. Posted in Heliskiing News

It's never too far or too deep when we are talking powder!


Growing up a skier here in British Columbia you hear the stories about the legendary powder dumps up in the north coast ranges. More specifically in the Terrace area. I even remember tales about local resorts fibbing on their snow reports because people wouldn't believe that they actually had that much snow. When I saw this video teaser summing up the 2011 season at Northern Escape Heli-Skiing I definitely starting thinking that this may have to be the year to get up to Terrace and search out some legendary turns myself.

Norther Escape Heliskiing is located a short 20 minute drive the the Terrace airport and there are flights that leave daily from Vancouver. So accessing this remote, wild, and deep area of BC isn't has difficult as it may look at first glance. With all the rumors of back-to-back La Nina seasons we suggest that this be the season you go check it out too. Hey, maybe we'll see you up there!

Legendary Powder - Stellar Location

Jason from Stellar Heliskiing sends us a teaser from his GoPro collection.


We woke up to this video in our inbox this morning. It is no doubt a late night, powder obsessed creation from Stellar Heli Skiing owner/operator Jason Remple. We can just picture Jason going through all his GoPro footage from last season trying to choose the best footage to get us salivating for some turns in the epic Selkirk and Purcell Mountains of BC. We get the feeling that this is just the first of many pre-season videos from Jason and the crew at Stellar Heliskiing!

We had the pleasure of being guided by Jason last season and had one of the best back country experiences of our lives!
