Where to start if you've never skied from a helicopter
Heliskiing has a reputation for being difficult and extreme — that's a common misconception. Heliskiing is easier than resort freeriding on chopped-up snow: we fly to untracked snow, and it forgives mistakes. With a helicopter we are not tied to lifts or set routes: the guide picks the drop-off and pick-up for the group's level and makes the route easier or more challenging, so it works for everyone, from experienced riders to beginners. A little off-piste experience is enough. You can try it in a single day in Krasnaya Polyana or Arkhyz. If you have a week — Baikal opens the season in November and we finish in Chile in August.
