ABOUT

Shhhh, it's a secret...don't tell everyone about the mom and pop operation found in the rugged Northern Wasatch Mountains of Utah. Quietly we invite special guests into our heli-home for a great winter adventure and a lifetime of friendship.  Our low key professional approach finds us the successful venture we endeavored to be.  We hope you will join us soon...but again...Shhhh, don't tell everyone....it's a secret!

Casey
Heli-Guide / DP Ski Patroller

Casey believes in the challenge of a man versus a snowy mountainside.  Crisp cool air, a new blanket of white gold, and a heart pounding atop a peak...the descent begins.  Skiing came very naturally to him as a child and now, let's just say he loves to test those skills.  He's ski patrolled more than two decades and hopes someday to have his son continue with the family traditions.
