Safety is our prime concern. PHS highly trained guides and pilots do as best they can to keep their guests from exposure to potential hazards. However, risks associated with heli-skiing / heli- snowboarding cannot be entirely eliminated.

Guests must acknowledge this fact and are required to sign a release of liability / acceptance of risks agreement.

All skiers / boarders receive safety briefings on their first day, prior to boarding the helicopter. These include procedures to follow for helicopter hazard management, as well as instruction in the use of avalanche transceivers.

Exclusion of Liability - Assumption of Risks
Please Read Carefully!

Wilderness skiing and snowboarding involve risks, dangers and hazards in addition to those normally associated with downhill skiing and snowboarding at a ski area. These risks, dangers and hazards are outlined in our Release of Liability and Assumption of Risks Agreement which all guests are requested to read and required to sign before participating in our wilderness skiing program. This agreement will affect your legal rights should you be involved in an accident. Copies of the agreement are available from our office and by clicking here.
