Here’s how to book your Heli-Skiing or Heli-Boarding trip. If
you have any questions or concerns give us a call at 1-800-661-0252.
1. Choose a trip, plus two or three alternatives.
Using our Dates & Prices page,
or the Heli-Skiing handbook, select an area and dates that you're interested
in, as well as two or three alternatives. You may also wish to check
our Space Availability pages to
see which trips in the coming season still have space. Note that
certain areas (Bobbie Burns, Galena, Kootenay, and Monashees) are for
advanced skiers only.
2. Contact us with your choices.
If you're contacting us on behalf of a group of skiers, include
the names and contact information for all skiers in your group.
Phone: 1-800-661-0252
Fax: 1-403-762-5879
E-mail: info@cmhinc.com
3. We will send you an Application for Helicopter Ski Weeks Form and
a CMH Heli-Ski Waiver to complete, sign, and return to our office. Note
that your waiver must be signed before we can accept your booking.
Please read the waiver and application form carefully to become familiar
with all terms and conditions.
4. Submit your initial deposit within 30 days.
Deposit amounts are:
$1,000 CDN for trips of 7 days or longer
$500 CDN for trips less than 7 days
This deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable and must be received
by CMH within 30 days of booking.
Waitlist: If you are placed on our waitlist, we ask for the
appropriate deposit for the trip, but this is refunded if we are
not able to confirm you on a ski week, or if you cancel your waitlist
space. Once you are confirmed on a trip, this deposit becomes non-refundable
and non-transferable.
5. Submit your final payment, 10 weeks prior to your trip's start
date.
We’ll notify you of the final payment amount 14 weeks before
your trip. Remember that all monies become nonrefundable 10 weeks
before the trip date.
CMH can accept:
- cash
- travellers cheques
- credit cards: MasterCard or VISA
- bank drafts
- personal cheques - only personal cheques drawn on Canadian banks
may be written in Canadian funds. All other cheques or Eurocheques
drawn on banks located in other countries, including the U.S.,
must be written in local currencies. Be sure to include your client
identification number (which we will provide) on the back of Eurocheques.
- transfer funds - you may also instruct your bank to transfer
funds directly to our bank, to the credit of Canadian Mountain
Holidays Inc., Bank of Montreal, Banff, Canada, account 25109-001-8047-100.
International clients should use Swift Code BOFMCAM2. Be absolutely
sure that transfer instructions and/or cheques include your name
and trip week number.
Please clearly indicate whether your payment includes funds for
trip cancellation insurance (see below).
And please keep in mind that all prices, both in the handbook and
on this Web site, are quoted in Canadian currency and are subject
to change.
6. Travel preparations to keep in mind: passports and insurance.
Passports: We encourage all guests to travel with passports,
especially those travelling to Canada from the United States. As
part of the US government's Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative,
effective Dec. 31, 2006, Americans will need a passport or other
yet to be defined "secure documents" to enter or re-enter
both Canada and US.
Insurance options and forms:
a) Trip Cancellation: Deposits for Heli-Skiing
are totally non-refundable and non-transferable. We recommend that
you purchase trip cancellation insurance (which is 10% of your trip
cost) with your final payment. We’ll send complete insurance
information along with your final payment request. Payment is due
10 weeks before your trip.

b) Medical Insurance: We recommend you carry
insurance to cover hospital and helicopter ambulance evacuation expenses,
which are available through CMH. Make sure any insurance you purchase
covers you while you are in Canada or out of your home province.

d) Personal Insurance: We recommend you carry
insurance to cover loss of baggage, skis, personal belongings, due
to airlines or unforeseen accidents. Your usual homeowners insurance
may not be enough. Make sure this insurance covers you while you
are in Canada.
