Safety is our Priority
Safety underpins everything we do. All our guides are trained and certified by the CAA (Canadian Avalanche Association) along with either the CSGA (Canadian Ski Guides Association) or ACMG (Association of Canadian Mountain Guides).
White Grizzly is also a proud member of Helicat Canada, which oversees the helicopter and catskiing industry in Canada. This organization provides us with vital information and guidelines for industry safety, guest experience, environmental impacts, and employee well-being.
All guests are provided industry-approved avalanche safety gear and a radio as well as the option of an avalanche airbag. Guests are given a detailed safety orientation at the beginning of the first day of skiing, which includes beacon searches and a tree-well demonstration.
Our snowcat and guides are in regular contact with our lodge while on the mountain and we have a thorough Emergency Response Plan in place should it be required. All guests have Emergency Evacuation Insurance included as part of the booking for their trip.
