A week at Galena (backcountry ski lodge) - March 22-28

We have done these heli ski trips a few times but this was the first time at this lodge for most of the people in our group!

We did a 'fusion' trip this time which is 3 days of heli skiing and 3 1/2 days of helicopter assisted backcountry skiing.  Heli-assist backcountry means that they take you out at the beginning of the day and pick you up at the end.  The rest of the time you are skinning and skiing on your own.   I (Karyn) found this to be a magical mixture of the skiing that I enjoy and will try to do this type of trip again!

In no particular order....  days of heli and hiking......
