Terrain and Ability

Our terrain includes a wide variety of pristine wilderness runs. Bowls, chutes, well-spaced tree skiing, it’s all here. 12,000 to 18,000 vertical feet of which you can expect to experience per day, what amounts to an average of 8 to 12 runs. It’s close to the same amount of vertical allotted in a weeklong package of heliskiing, for half the price. There is no skiing on Saturday and Sunday, resulting in Mondays usually being quite deep.

At SWS a certain level of ski and snowboard ability is required. We suggest riders be strong intermediates in good physical condition, able to navigate most black diamond runs at a lift-serviced area.
