Helicopter ride over the Rocky Mountains

Get ready for an adventure of a lifetime! Imagine soaring up to the headwaters of Cline River, which is fed by Pinto Lake. As you ascend to an altitude of 3048 metres, you and your friends will be able to witness the breathtaking Columbia Icefield and Continental Divide in the distance. It's truly a sight to behold!



During your journey, you'll even get to fly by the west face of Cirrus Mountain, where you can witness the magnificent Weeping Wall. But that's not all, while passing over the Icefield Parkway, your friends will be able to spot Mount Columbia and the Columbia Icefield. You'll be able to marvel at the large crevasses, fissures, and stunning blue of glacial ice from above. It's a natural wonder that you won't want to miss.

The adventure continues as you encounter Mount Cline, one of only a handful of 3352-metre peaks east of the Continental Divide. Once past Mount Cline, you will have a chance to view the Cline, White Goat, Lion, Lioness, Resolute, and Hanging Glacier. It's an experience that you and your friends will never forget.
