Great Northern Powder Guides

Great Northern Powder Guides Cat Skiing Montana There are lots of terms and phrases that can get a powderhound drooling: freshies; face shots; visit the powder room; hang out in the white room; eat some pow. These conjure up delicious thoughts of skiing or snowboarding fresh deep powder. Unfortunately the fresh tracks that all powderhounds crave can be hard to find at ski resorts, but get out cat skiing with Great Northern Powder Guides, and you’ll experience freshies galore and satisfy your craving!

Great Northern Powder Guides have acquired the former Valhalla Adventures cat skiing operation, and are set to provide a range of epic ski and snowboard adventures.

Where is Great Northern Powder Guides Located? Great Northern Powder Guides is located in the northern region of the Stillwater State Forest in northwest Montana near Glacier National Park and Whitefish. They provide complimentary transportation between their base of operations and various locations around Whitefish Mountain Resort and the town of Whitefish.

Don’t confuse Great Northern Powder Guides (in Montana USA) with Great Northern Snowcat Skiing near Trout Lake BC.

Cat Skiing Terrain Revel in the powder amongst nicely spaced steep trees suitable for advanced riders, or play in mellow glades that can be tackled by intermediates. Depending on the ability and speed of the group, a typical snowcat skiing day includes 8 to 10 runs and 10,000 feet of bliss. The terrain size is reasonably large at 9,600 acres and with 7.8 metres of snowfall per season, there are plenty of freshies on offer.
