Helicopter Rides

It is not too hard to pick out from the name of the sport itself that heli skiing has something to do with helicopters. Well, it is off trail, downhill snowboarding or skiing, accessed by a helicopter. Passionate patrons of the sport even book a year in advance to leap onto snow on peaks far away from human inhabitation, and then ski down. They ignore completely the possibility of being stranded by weather change, or being killed by avalanche. The helicopter rides, too, are perilous.
