Winter Positions with TLH Heliskiing at Tyax Lodge
A remote mountain lodge, no 'town' to speak of and 44 new
faces and names to meet every week...still interested?

operation going. And of course, it takes many talented people

job. Keep in mind, it is a job, though perhaps one of the
most interesting you'll ever experience.
 Everyone that puts in a winter season at Tyax Lodge has
memories that will stay with them - the kind of stories
that are shared on a chairlift or perhaps back at the bar
after an epic day of powder. Each of the winter positions
involves long days, intense client interaction and above
all, the need to show our clients the best possible heliski
experience in British Columbia. And yes, our winter staff
enjoy the treat of heliskiing and heliboarding based on
a rotation of staff and available seats. Most positions
at the lodge are based on a 2 weeks on - one week off model.
Staff are encouraged to leave the lodge to enjoy their week
off and are discouraged from having other employment during
their time off from TLH.

you are, the better.
