Planning Your Trip

High Mountain Heli takes pride in its mission to provide the best heli experience possible. Modern A-Star B3e helicopters quickly and safely whisk you around the never-ending terrain as world-class guides choose their favorite spots to ski based on the day’s current conditions. After 6-8 runs, you land back Jackson Hole, Wyoming, after a mind-blowing day of powder skiing and picturesque terrain.
Regular flights arrive at Jackson Hole Airport (12 miles north of Jackson, WY) from major cities, including: Denver, Salt Lake City, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Newark, Phoenix, San Francisco and Seattle. You can also drive there—4WD is highly recommended. The closest major city is Salt Lake, which is 4.5 hours to the south.
Additionally, because HMH owns its own helicopter, private aerial transfers (or whatever else you can dream up) can be arranged. Worth noting, HMH has access to a private plane which allows them to offer custom out-of-state travel itineraries for those who prefer to avoid the hassles of TSA security lines.
HMH’s two local bases are located at the Snake River Sporting Club, 19 miles south of Jackson, WY and Teton Springs Lodge, 24 miles to the east in Victor, ID.
HMH has over 3,500 acres of permitted terrain across two states and four mountain ranges. This gives them the ability to choose appropriate terrain for each group. You should be in top physical shape and have experience skiing powder. It’s best to book a trip with three friends (four total per group) who ski at the same skill level. If that’s not an option HMH will match you with a group of similar ability.

In addition to HMH’s partner lodges (Snake River Sporting Club in Hoback, WY and Teton Springs Lodge in Victor, ID) Jackson Hole has a variety of lodging options that range from the no frills Super 8 to the luxurious Four Seasons. Mountain Modern, just a few blocks off the town square, is a great option that offers comfortable accommodations at an affordable price.
Along the same vein, restaurant options run the gamut, from fast food to fine dining. Some of our favorites include: Bin22—a wine bar serving Italian and Spanish small plates—and The Bird—a laid-back locals joint that serves comfort food with a wide selection of brews.
