Why do heli-ski guides complain about their backpacks?
What’s in a helicopter ski guide’s backpack?
What’s in their pockets?
A lot…
My heliski guiding backpack weighs 30+ pounds.
I’m carrying about 60 pounds of gear overall when I drop in.
Check out this video to see exactly what I carry on a day out heliski guiding in Alaska.
I guide in Valdez, Alaska for Pulseline Adventure heliskiing.
Thanks!
