**Group Tours**

We strive to match ability and fitness levels so that you can all make the most of your day in the backcountry.

**Private Tours**

You will have the guide to yourselves all day, to work at your own pace and discuss which terrain would best suit you.

**What We Need From You**

You’ll need a good overall fitness level, and be willing to put in a bit of work to earn your turns. You should be an intermediate skier/rider with some off-piste experience, and/or more rugged ski resort terrain. Introductory level options are certainly welcome, however the group’s overall ability will dictate the day.
