A private 40 minute flight for up to 5 passengers. This tour departs from the Whistler heliport, and immediately heads North through the remote backcountry terrain of the Soo and Rutherford valleys, before reaching the remarkable Ipsoot Icefield. Lesser known in the area because of its isolate location, this glacier boasts kilometres of icefall with open crevasses, ice caves,and a glacial few river. After 20 minutes of flights, we then return South to Rainbow for a 15 minute landing on summit glacier boasting views of the Whistler-Blackomb ski resort. The tour finishes with 20 minutes flying through the iconic Whistler landmarks of the Black Tusk, Garabaldi Lake, Cheakamus Glacier, the Peak to Peak, and the ski resort. This is the most all-encompassing experience you can do in Whistler, and should not be missed!
