Telluride Helitrax’s high-elevation heliskiing terrain, (10,500 to 13,600 feet), is the highest in North America and is generally not affected by warm temperatures and rain at lower elevations on the continent. This allows guests of Telluride Helitrax’s to consistently enjoy cold powder heli skiing through the month of April. |
