Snowfall at TLH Heliskiing
The average annual snowfall at 5,900 feet
(1,800 meters) is approximately 45 to 60 feet (14 to 18 meters) which leaves
us with an average base of 10 to 12 feet (3 to 4 meters) of snow on the
ground. It's not unusual to find over 16 feet (5 meters) of snow at higher
elevations on the glaciers.
Temperatures
Temperatures are generally well suited for skiing and range from -5°C
to -15°C (23°F to 5°F). At worst, there can be short spell of
rain or periods when the temperature can drop to -30ºC (-22ºF).
Snow Conditions
Records show that during 75% of our season the snow conditions
are excellent to good. However, you must be aware that helicopter skiing
is not always perfect and conditions may occasionally
be very challenging. Our guides strive to seek out the best conditions
to be found on any given day.
Down Days
On average, it is only about one-half a day per week that conditions prevent
us from skiing or snowboarding.
