| All our back-country tours are mechanized access whether it be sled and shred, a cat ride in or snowmobile access. To take you to some of our best locations. The sled and shred is a combination of snowmobile access, snowmobile tow ins and snowmobile lift ride. The cat ride in is just that we use one of our cats to take you to a location that best suits you. From frozen waterfalls and extreme chutes and pillows to gentle open spaces. The snowmobile access is much the same as the cat access but instead of having our driver take you to the location you drive your self on one of our snowmobiles. Unlike our other tours you may have to hike. | |
