StavRos 1,194 Report post Posted October 7, 2013 Μια ερώτηση: Ρε παιδιά, ΟΚ, θέλετε να βάλετε μια απάντηση σε ένα ποστ που απλά σας άρεσε με τα σχόλιά σας, ΟΚ μέχρι εδώ. Νομίζετε ότι διευκολύνετε κάποιον όταν απλά το επαναλαμβάνετε ολόκληρο (πόσο μάλλον όταν είναι μεγάλο και με φωτογραφίες)? Θα μπορούσατε να βάλετε το λινκ του συγκεκριμένου ποστ και από κάτω τα σχόλιά σας. Είναι μεγάλο προσόν ενός φόρουμ η ευαναγνωσιμότητα... στις ρυθμισεις του φορουμ ειναι το αν θα περιλαμβανει τις φωτο στο quote η οχι Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olga 6,796 Report post Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) The Top Ten Ways to Prepare for Your Heliski Vacation From least to most important, this is the fool-proof preparation plan to ensure that you get the most out of your ski vacation with Last Frontier Heliskiing. Be like this guy. Come prepared. Photo: Blake Jorgenson 10. Book your trip and then duct tape your credit card and put it in the back of your freezer. There is nothing else that is worth buying. Except a GoPro… 9. Learn how to use your GoPro now. Start today. Please, at the very least, know how to tell when it is on. 8. Ladies, challenge yourself while “using the facilities” for the next few months. Think outside the box. You will not regret this when you are waging war on your bib pants in waist-deep snow. FYI: Girls go to the bathroom together, even on a glacier. Team work makes the dream work. Photo: Mike Watling 7. Between now and your trip, do not sustain an injury doing something lame. IE: a) Breaking your arm sliding into first base in beer league softball. Tearing your ACL/MCL jumping on a trampoline. c) Dislocating your shoulder playing Ultimate Frisbee. d) Cracking your tail bone limbo-ing at a wedding. 6. Get your lefts and rights sorted out. It can be very high consequence to go right when your guide “loosely suggests” staying left. To prepare, blindfold yourself and spin in circles until you have no sense of time or space. Rip off the blindfold and go right at a fast pace until you are comfortable with what this feels like. Repeat this exercise on the left side. Ten reps, three times per week, should ensure that when your guide says which way to go, you will be able to. 5. Set up as many high-powered fans as you can get your hands on and crank them to full. Practice staying “in position” infront of them: one knee down, one knee up, elbow casually cocked over upper thigh. When the helicopter lands to pick up the group, you will not be the guy that is backwards somersaulting into a snow ditch behind you. Humiliating. Air blaster. Stay calm. Photo: Blake Jorgenson 4. Buy a bag of flour and set up an obstacle course in your back yard. Have your wife/husband/kids/neighbour throw flour in your face while you hot lap the course at full speed. This will assist in your ability to remain calm and upright when faceshots render you temporarily blind. 3. Engage in regular breakfast shots (tequila, whiskey, etc.). Develop your ability to do high intensity activity after over-indulging. We recommend channeling your college-life personality and bringing him/her back. 2. Know the answers to the following questions: Do we jump out of the helicopter? No. Is there Wi-Fi? Sort of. Is the bartender single? Grey area. Good luck. What is “tits deep?” Not “knee deep.” Does the pilot know how to fly the helicopter? No. Of course not. Am I going to die? Yes. Eventually, we all die. It’s a heli-ski myth. Nobody actually jumps out of the helicopter..or do they? Photo: Randy Lincks 1. Start scaling back on responsibilities at work now. There is a very good chance that once you get here, you won’t want to leave. BONUS TIP: “AY-OH” is universally understood as “DO NOT LEAVE ME BEHIND,” as well as, “sorry, I got excited and skied really far ahead of you.” It can be delivered to indicate friendship, euphoria, confusion, innocence, panic, gratefulness and humility.

Olga 6,796 Report post Posted November 4, 2013 Heli-skiing: five great locations From snow-capped mountains in the Andes to glaciers in Alaska, we choose the best places to set down your fat boys. The Monashees, British Columbia The most challenging of the ski areas in the Canadian Mountain Holidays (CMH) portfolio, the Monashees are not for the first-time heli-skier. Offering what is arguably the best “steep and deep” tree skiing in the world, two-thirds of the runs are set in mature, well-spaced forest. Two private guides will take you to a seemingly unlimited range of locations with long, steep-pitched terrain; skiers staying for a week are guaranteed to descend at least 100,000ft of vertical drop. About 66ft of snow falls each season, so – as one skier quipped – don’t forget your mask and snorkel. The fully catered lodge sleeps up to 48 people and has all the usual mod cons, as well as a rooftop Jacuzzi, games room, sauna and massage therapists on hand to ease those tired legs. CMH (001 800 661 0252, www.canadianmountainholidays.com) is offering seven days of heli-skiing from C$5,500 (£3,050) per person. The price includes full board, equipment hire, guides, all helicopter costs and transfers, but excludes international flights. The Cariboos, British Columbia Run by one of the pioneers of “fat boy” skis, Mike Wiegele’s heli-skiing base nestled in Blue River can access both the Monashee and Cariboo Mountains. The Cariboos are still considered the best all-round destination, whether it is for first-timers on gentler slopes or for more experienced skiers tackling steep-pitched runs through trees and across wide open glacial bowls. With 22 log chalets to choose from, the resort has no shortage of accommodation either. The private Bavarian House Estate , with eight double rooms and the feel of an Alpine chalet about it, offers spectacular views across Eleanor Lake. Facilities for guests include a sports centre, games rooms, a private chef, plus a spa and sauna. Mike Wiegele Helicopter Skiing (001 800 661 9170, www.wiegele.com) is offering a five-day package from C$6,414 (£3,390) per person. The price includes 80,000ft of vertical descent, two guides per group and full-board accommodation, but not flights. Chugach, Alaska One for the purists, Chugach does not offer the homely accommodation of British Columbia – but the skiing is unrivalled. A far northern location and guaranteed snow mean heli-skiing can take place at lower altitudes than in BC. The steep terrain of the Chugach Mountains has made this a favourite location for extreme winter sports videos, but there is plenty of more moderate skiing, too. Valdez Heli-Camps, founded by Vermont-born Matt White, is the only all-inclusive heli-skiing destination in Alaska. Groups are limited to four, transported by fast A-Star helicopters, and typically negotiate 20,000ft of vertical descent. Valdez Heli-Camps (001 907 783 3243, www.valdezhelicamps.com) is offering three-day packages from US$4,149 (£2,150). The price includes full board in Valdez, equipment, helicopter fees and transfers, but not flights. The Andes, Chile Every summer, heli-skiing fanatics head south to Chile for the southern hemisphere’s winter. Powder South, flying out of its base deep in the Central Andes, has access to about 1,900 square miles of heli-skiing terrain, including the Rio Colorado Valley to the north and the Tinguiririca Valley to the south. With light “dry” snow, it may not offer the kind of tree-skiing seen in the best of the BC locations – but for sheer variety of landscape (towering faces, steep couloirs, ridges, bowls, volcanoes), it has few equals. All this is set among mountains 22,000ft high. The cosy, family-owned El Ingenio Lodge , in the Maipo Valley , boasts hot tubs, gourmet food and an outdoor pool. Powder South Heliski Guides (0800 404 9183, www.heliskiguides.com) is offering a week from 7,000 euros (£5,560) per person, including full board and equipment, but not international flights. The Alps, Europe Heli-skiing in Europe bears little resemblance to the Canadian wilderness experience, since helicopters fly out of major ski resorts or bases close to them. If the weather and snow let you down, there is always conventional skiing (and the facilities of a resort) to fall back on. In Switzerland, stay at the discreet Tivoli Lodge in Davos and fly to the Davos Klosters Mountains; in France (where heli-skiing is banned), you can still stay at Chalet Yellowstone in Ste Foy and take a flight to the Italian peaks. From there, ski back down into France across the Italian border. Descent (020 7384 3854, www.descent.co.uk) offers both the above as options in its Maximum Descent packages. A week in Ste Foy costs from £1,575 per person. Heli-skiing is extra: 450 euros (£350) per person, for two drops on the mountain with a guide, based on a full helicopter.
