I was lucky enough to go heliskiing with my dad and 2 brothers, it was the best holiday I have ever had, the skiing and terrain was out of this world and the dry powder was unbelievable, not to mention the food and great time we had at the lodge.

The entire trip was out of this world, the only problem is how we are going to talk dad into taking us again

(ANY IDEAS?).

It doesn''t get better than this

Written by Brad a Snowboarder from Avalon, Sydney
15/10/2009

When a modest, quietly spoken, veteran guide of 25 years turned with a smile wider than his face and screamed at the top of his lungs "It doesn''t get better than this yyeeeeooooow!" it was only my overwhelming, breathless joy that stopped me doing the same ....after high speed floating over pillow after pillow of deeeep fluffy powder, slicing through what felt like a cloud kilometers long, every turn a face shot of cool, enveloping majestic old growth pines standing proudly on their 45 degree bed, with only the sound of craft blowing rooster tail spray and mates hooting with delight to break the weight of peace...I knew he was right just couldn''t speak..but when that buzz repeated, run after run, day after day there was absolutely no doubt my overwhelming, breathless joy, couldn''t stop me joining the screaming.... "it DOESN"T get any better than this yyeeeoooow!" Galena BC...boarder heaven!

The Galena Lodge is located in a wild and remote setting surrounded by some of the most varied and challenging tree skiing available to CMH.
 

The lodge's modular architecture is trimmed in logs and painted an earth brown. Simple but comfortable bedrooms at the ground level attach to a three-storey living area and kitchen.

Three major valleys converge close to the lodge, providing access to skiable areas in most types of weather.

Note: Because of the challenging terrain, we do not recommend Galena for first time Heli-Skiers.
