series of comprehensive examinations to qualify them as members of:

| In spite of our best efforts, there
are risks and hazards associated with Heli-Skiing that
you must share with us.

 |
Tree
SkiingTree skiing has its own
risks associated with deep holes that form around
the tree trunks during the course of the winter.
Your guide will give you instructions on how to
ski in the forest. He will also insist that you
ski with a partner who stays close by so that he
or she will be able to assist should you fall in
one of these "tree wells". Not only is this
"buddy-system" safer, it is also a lot of fun to
follow someone down a deeply snow-covered
run.

|
| Helicopters and
Pilots
Our pilots are chosen with
similar qualities in mind as our guides. Not only are
they very experienced in mountain flying, but they are
also professional and outgoing by nature. We charter
small and powerful A-Star B2 and Bell 407 helicopters
which accommodate 5 guests, a guide and pilot.
Helicopter maintenance is provided by full time
engineers based at the lodge for the duration of the
season. |

The
TreesTrees are for many skiers the
most exiting and challenging skiing imaginable. The snow
usually is untouched by the wind and stays light and
fluffy for a long time. There is nothing more
exhilarating than to spend a day skiing the trees with a
heavy snowfall, covering your tracks behind you. Many of
the tree runs, are close to the lodge and easily
accessible in poor weather. The outstanding quality of
these runs, insures that our tree skiing will live up to
and exceed the expectations of the most demanding
skiers. Our guides are always happy to provide pointers
on tree skiing techniques in order to make this integral
part of Heli-Skiing an enjoyable experience for
everyone.

EmergenciesContinuous radio contact between
the pilots, guides and the Lodge enables a fast response
in the event of an emergency. The guides carry emergency
equipment in their packs, additional equipment is
carried in the helicopters and we have rescue caches at
Bell II lodge and in the field. In an emergency, two
hospitals and additional helicopter bases are within 30
- 40 minutes flying time.Guests must be aware that the
costs for evacuation transportation by helicopter are at
their own expense. With the purchase of Helicopter
Evacuation Insurance, Last Frontier Heliskiing Ltd.
provides full coverage for helicopter evacuation from
the ski area to Bell II Lodge in case of a personal
injury while Heli-Skiing. Please ensure, prior to
departure, that your regular medical insurance covers
transportation by helicopter or ambulance from Bell II
Lodge to the nearest hospital.
