When one day of heli skiing with Sun Valley Heli Ski is just not enough to satisfy your appetite for powder and majestic vistas, and you want to really get away from it all, you have the option to stay in the remote fly-in Smoky Mountain Lodge and enjoy a bespoke multi-day package.
Sun Valley Heli Ski is unique in that it’s the only helicopter skiing outfit in the lower 48 that has a remote backcountry lodge.
Smoky Mountain Lodge in Idaho is a luxury lodge that has 4 guest rooms and accommodates up to 8 guests. The lounge area has comfortable sofas and an open fire, which makes it perfect for relaxation after a big day out in the mountains. Or for more relaxation, you can have a massage or hot tub. If you need to stay connected, the lodge has wifi, so you can post some of your brag photos on social media.
Gourmet breakfasts and dinners are prepared by a chef, whilst lunch is served up in the mountains in the middle of your heli skiing day. Après ski can incorporate a beer or wine whilst sampling from a charcuterie platter and hor d’oeuvres.
The Smoky Mountain Lodge is nestled in a river canyon, west of Sun Valley. See the
Sun Valley Heli Ski overview for more information on location, as well as terrain and snow. From the lodge, it’s just a short walk out the front door where your helicopter awaits to take you up into the mountains. It’s also possible to go cross country skiing or snowshoeing from the lodge.
All trips are customized to accommodate clients’ specific wishes. The lodge is available on a limited basis and guests should
make a booking request to discuss availability, customize an experience, and get a quote.
Ability Level
The terrain near the Smoky Mountain Lodge accommodates strong intermediate skiers and riders, whilst slightly further afield there is an abundance of terrain for advanced riders.
Skiers should have powder skis with a minimum of 100mm in the waist, which will allow flotation in the powder and make it easier to stay on top of varied snow conditions. There are rental shops in Sun Valley where you can source powder skis.
