Dreaming Of White Champagne Powder

We've now moved on to August, the halfway month between the beginning and end of the ski season. The good news is that there is less time to wait (roughly four months and counting). The bad news is that it is still summer and the only snow visible is away on the tippy tops of the mountains. Other than visiting the Southern Hemisphere, or really high mountains, the only way to find the snow you crave is in your dreams. Canada Heliskiing
If that familiar itch, that yearly indicator that it's time for powder, has started up again, you'll have to placate it a little while longer with dreams of soft fluffy blankets of snow on the mountains. If you are thinking about a heliskiing vacation to British Columbia this year, then the tenure of Mica Heli Guides, should be the setting of your dream. After all, there is a reason 95% of the world's heliskiing and cat skiing takes place in B.C. every year.
Mica's tenure is enormous, covering more than 177,000 acres of some of the most epic terrain in the world. Perfectly spaced gladed tree runs, check. Steep chutes, check. Breathtaking alpine ridges, check. Endless pillow lines, check. Mica's terrain really does include it all. There are eight main valleys of which Mica provides helicopter tours, and based on the amount of pure vertical alone, it's worth the trip. Canada Heli Skiing
And what ski dream would be complete without the lodge? There too, Mica has you covered. Their impressive lodge is located in the backcountry, just up the slope from the Kinbasket Lake. After a great day on the mountain, come back, relax, and bask in the serenity of the wilderness. As you can see, Mica has the terrain and champagne powder of your dreams.
