Chile Powder Trips: Private Cat Skiing & Heli Skiing Expeditions

Tailor-Made Private Expeditions in the Andes

A Southern Hemisphere winter built entirely around your group. We design each expedition from scratch — cat skiing, heli skiing, or human-powered backcountry — across the volcanoes and high alpine terrain of the Chilean Andes.

Minimum technical level: Advanced

Certified by the American Avalanche Association (AAA)

Season

10 July – 15 September

Strict window — no departures outside these dates.

Minimum Group

4 participants

Private departures only; the group is exclusively yours.

Format

Tailor-made

Itinerary, terrain, and lodging built around your group.

Disciplines

Three ways to ride the Andes

Every expedition is assembled from these disciplines — combined in whatever proportion suits your group, the snowpack, and the objectives you want to chase.

Cat Skiing

Snowcat access to high-alpine bowls and untouched Andean terrain, well beyond the reach of the lift network.

Heli Skiing

Helicopter drops onto remote volcanic ridgelines, opening lines that are otherwise simply unreachable.

Backcountry Skiing / Snowboarding

Human-powered touring with our AAA-certified guides, built around snowpack conditions and your objectives.

Every Chile expedition is quoted individually

Because terrain, lodging, and aircraft or snowcat time change with every group and every season, there is no fixed price list. Tell us your dates, group size, and what you want to ride, and we will build the itinerary and quote around it.

Departures require a minimum of 4 participants and fall strictly between 10 July and 15 September.
