Silvertip Lodge Heli-Skiing

Williams Lake, British Columbia, Canada

Silvertip Heliskiing operates from Silvertip Lodge, a private, off-grid lodge at the far east end of Quesnel Lake in British Columbia's Cariboo Mountains. There are no roads into this part of the Cariboo, so guests arrive by helicopter. Their 1,440 sq. km ski tenure starts right outside the lodge's front door, which means the first run of the day is only minutes away. The terrain covers high-alpine bowls, glacier runs, and well-spaced tree skiing. The cold, dry climate of BC's interior produces light, dry powder through the season. The lodge was built in 1967 as a fishing and hunting retreat. It became a heliskiing lodge after a 2002 renovation by CMH. Today it's owned by a small group and run as an independent operation, and that independence shapes the experience. Silvertip keeps guest numbers small and has no competing groups on its terrain. Depending on the week, there are often as many staff on duty as there are guests. Silvertip offers several ways to ski. The Classic program has scheduled tours of 4 to 9 days, with unlimited vertical and a guaranteed minimum vertical for each tour length. Small groups and solo travelers join a curated group. Parties of 8 can book a semi-private group on the lodge's Bell 212. Groups of up to 16 skiers can buy out the entire lodge, helicopter, and terrain. For the most exclusive option, the Private program provides a dedicated A-Star for up to 3 skiers, or a private 212 for up to 8, along with a private lead guide and tail guide. Getting to Silvertip is simple for a place this remote. Classic tours include the private charter flight from Vancouver to Williams Lake and the 45-minute helicopter transfer to the lodge, so the trip from Vancouver takes about 2.5 hours. The season runs from early January to early April. Contact Heli to check dates and book a Silvertip Heliskiing Adventure.

Silverton Mountain

Silverton, CO, United States

Silverton Mountain is a ski and heli-ski operation based in Silverton, Colorado, in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado. It's the highest and steepest ski area in North America, with a peak elevation of 13,487' and a base at 10,400'. A single chairlift carries riders to 12,300', unloading at the top of a cirque that opens onto bowls, chutes, cliffs, and natural terrain with up to 3,000' of vertical in a single run — the mountain is left in its natural state, with no groomed runs or cut trails. The winter season (late December through mid-March) runs on a fully guided model, with groups of roughly eight led by expert guides Thursday through Sunday. From mid-March through mid-April, the mountain shifts to an unguided spring season for experienced Silverton skiers and riders, accessible with a lift ticket or season pass. Heliskiing runs year-round, seven days a week, and Silverton stands out as the only heli operator in the continental U.S. offering everything from a single add-on heli run to a full 6-run heli day, private small-group trips, and fully private helicopter charters across a terrain zone spanning roughly 29,000–40 square miles. Terrain here is advanced-to-expert only, and Silverton is upfront that this is not a beginner mountain — it's built for skiers and riders looking for a real backcountry experience without giving up lift access. Guests unsure of their fit can take the mountain's online ability quiz before booking. Silverton also offers full private mountain buyouts for groups, corporate events, and reunions. Recommended trip length is 2–3 days, and the town of Silverton — about an hour from both Durango and Montrose airports — offers a range of independent lodging options for guests to base out of during their stay.

Silvestre

Nosara, Guanacaste province, Costa Rica

Silvestre Nosara Hotel & Residences is a boutique hotel on Playa Guiones in Nosara, on Costa Rica's Pacific coast in Guanacaste Province. The property is made up of nine residences set in the jungle, steps from the break Silvestre calls the best surf in Nosara. It combines hotel-style service with the space, privacy and freedom of a private home. Every residence comes with a full kitchen, a washer/dryer, business-grade internet, daily breakfast on the rooftop terrace, access to the open gym, and a custom Jim Banks performance surfboard for the whole stay. Most residences are two-bedroom, roughly 1,000 sq ft, and sleep 4 to 7 depending on the layout. At the top end is the four-bedroom, 2,000 sq ft Penthouse Grand Residence, with a private bar and a hand-crafted marble infinity bathtub. Shared spaces include a rooftop bar, an infinity pool and a lounge set in the jungle canopy. Surf is at the heart of a stay here. Guests can book professional instruction with video analysis, including private lessons with ISA-certified coaches for all levels and tailored kids' lessons with custom-sized boards. Intermediate surfers and up can also take boat charters to point breaks and uncrowded beach breaks beyond Guiones. Out of the water, Silvestre can arrange in-residence massage, breathwork, acupuncture and IV therapy. Other options include ATV tours, canopy ziplining, horseback riding, seasonal turtle watching at Ostional, fishing and whale-watching charters, Costa Rican cooking classes and private chefs. Silvestre has been named to TIME's World's Greatest Places 2024 and Travel + Leisure's 100 Best New Hotels, and it holds one MICHELIN Key (2025). The property runs an on-site wastewater treatment system that recycles water for irrigation, uses refillable Le Labo toiletries, sponsors the Costas Verdes reforestation project, and hires and trains staff from the local community. It's a strong fit for families and groups who want a surf-focused base in Nosara without giving up the comforts of home.
