  • That’s all, folks. Now we focus on what’s most important: taking care of each other and staying well. Purcell is closing for the season. Thanks to all our guests and staff for the wonderful days up to here. We’ve connected with all remaining guests, but if anyone has any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. All our best, Katie, Jeff & Rudi
  • Hey, Calgary! Quick question: what difference does three hours make? It could be the difference between hating the end of winter in the city and loving it in the backcountry. Come get one more blast of powder before winter checks out. The last week of March is the best-kept-secret in heli-skiing: full of big alpine lines, lower rates, long days, and tons of vertical. One group, one chopper, taking off from Kicking Horse daily and headed straight for the best snow. Close to home, but out of this world.
  • Issue no.66 of The Yodel drops tomorrow.... For Those About To Send: 3 Common Mistakes We Make In Unfamiliar Terrain / Q&A: What’s The Snow Like in Late March? / Top Reasons to Get Into The Backcountry This Year and more!

  • We’ve changed the offering at Purcell in real ways over the past few years. Four years ago we were running multiple groups of 10 guests on any given day, and now we run one group of 6 people for a boutique experience. When people ask us if Rudi is on board with the changes we've made, the answer is an easy one. "Hell yeah he is!" (while he crushes a 7000 metre day in his trademark effortless rhythm). He loves it. He's the one who inspired us into being the kind of people that embrace evolution. Experience can limit imagination, but only if you let it. When we started The Yodel (our email newsletter), the name and the concept came out of commitment to two things: tradition and innovation. Wait, what? Yes. Both. It needed to be a place where we could keep the spirit of both alive - the timeless stuff that has always mattered and always will; and the new stuff, that adventurous drive that keeps us craning our necks to get a view around the next corner. Rudi lives his life refusing to believe those two things oppose each other. You can embrace the future while celebrating the past. You can discover old wisdom, over and over in fresh adventures. Tradition without innovation can feel stodgy and stagnant. Innovation without tradition can feel wild and untethered. But if you don't sacrifice one to the other, you've got yourself a fresh new day, with all the meaningful lessons from every day before. Sign up for The Yodel, and hear all the stories, old and new, through the link in our bio.

  • THE POW-LOVERS MANIFESTO: This ain’t no beach. We love bottomless turns, snow-caked goggles, breathing in the cold air and forgetting what your top sheet looks like. We believe that a day spent in the mountains with friends and family is a day spent well, under blue skies, grey skies or stormy skies. We're committed to the pursuit of fresh tracks, forever memories and the simple life with a big dose of WAHOOOO on the regular. It’s not just a sport. It’s a tribe. @colleen_gentemann
  • One. It's our favourite number. One group, one heli. It's uncomplicated. But it's the game-changer. And it's not just us saying that: . “It's the only way to go. The private helicopter changes the whole heli-ski experience. We never saw tracks other than our own!" - Gordon . “Having a helicopter to ourselves, not being shared with other groups, really made the experience even more special, efficient and fulfilling." - Pat Ready to seize the day? Today is the LAST day to get the best rates for 2021. Follow the link in our bio for all the deets, or reach out by email, phone or DM to get all your questions answered.

  • It happened. ⠀ This year Jeff and I realized we’re finally getting old enough to need time bookmarks. ⠀ Do you use these too? ⠀ It’s when you’re trying to remember when something happened, and you know the best you’re gonna be able to do is a vague target between memorable events: ⠀ … it was after we built the house, but before we got the dog. ⠀ … it was after we got married, but before our nephew was born. ⠀ … it was after you got stung by all those bees and had swollen Popeye forearms for a week, but before I abandoned you at a Mexican gas station. ⠀ (What can I say, landmarks come in all shapes and sizes.) ⠀ Large or small, weird or common, they’re points on our timeline where life changed, or you logged something away for the future. A lesson learned, a new perspective gained. ⠀ For us, the latest one is everything since we embraced a purely private, small-group program, leaning into everything that makes us us, and focusing all our expertise on delivering an outstanding experience for just a few people at a time. ⠀ We’re in the business of standing out on your timeline. ⠀ For 45 years, people have been telling us: ⠀ There’ll be everything before, and everything after. ⠀ What will be the next thing you do that you’ll remember forever? ⠀ @dibbledibble
