Skiing and snowboarding at a resort provides freedom and escape. You can turn and glide to your heart’s content, free from obligations and stress. During a powder day, the cushioned sensation is like nothing else, letting you flow and float over everything in your path. It’s just you and the mountain.

But sometimes you want more. Even at a big mountain, you have limited terrain options, and fresh snow can get tracked out fast. What if you had abundant mountains to explore, untouched powder fields waiting, and a helicopter at your disposal? 

That might sound like a dream, but it’s what heli-skiing provides. For those new to the field, selecting a provider could seem daunting. Wading through the options isn’t easy, especially if your group includes varying ability levels.

Thankfully, Heliski International offers impartial guidance, helping you and your group find the perfect adventure. Let’s dive in.

Heliski International makes it easy.

How the Baseus PicoGo series is making travel charging less of a hassle
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Every traveller has an everyday carry, even if they don’t think of it that way. A smartphone is a given. Earbuds are almost always close by. Many people also carry a smartwatch, a tablet, a handheld gaming console or a lightweight laptop, depending on where the day takes them. The common thread isn’t the devices themselves but the expectation that they’ll always be ready when they’re needed.

Baseus believes portable charging should be just as effortless to carry as the devices people rely on every day. The PicoGo Series brings that idea to life with two products that complement each other. PicoGo Air leads the lineup with an ultra-thin, lightweight design for everyday smartphone charging, while PicoGo AM52 expands the experience with higher capacity, a built-in cable and multi-device charging for longer journeys. Together, they create a complete charging solution for travellers, outdoor enthusiasts and digital nomads.

Steep, Unscripted, and Now Olympic: Freeride’s Big Leap
Outdoors, Nature, Snow

Victor de Le Rue stood in the starting tent atop the Bec de Rosses, 10,574 feet above Verbier, Switzerland, and surveyed the terrain. After some fist bumps, he dropped into the face, with pitches from 45 to 60 degrees, where cliff bands and outcroppings mar the surface like sharks waiting to attack. A place to survive. Instead, he turned it into a playground.

After a quick drop off a narrow outcropping, he surfed through a powder field, approached a snowy ridge, and lept into a backflip with the deftness of a leopard. From there, the dance continued. A backside 360 off a cliff, slashes through wind-whipped snow, and a run-capping drop over an extended rock formation. This is freeride. At once, a demonstration of skill and creativity.
