FEATURED DEPARTURES

We are relentless in our drive to find what’s new and next. We’re restless by nature and are always searching for new experiences and destinations.

FINNISH LAPLAND

PYHÄ-LUOSTO
BACKOUNTRY TOUR

Our Arctic tours focus on exploring the northernmost part of Finland, known as Lapland. This is the magical Arctic region known for its dark winter days, Northern Lights, wide open wilderness areas, frozen lakes and stunning Arctic fells. Lapland traditions are included - pow-surfing, smoke sauna, ice-hole swimming, experiencing Sami culture and touring the backcountry by snowshoe and snowmobile.

CANADA

BALDFACE VALHALLA TOUR

This tour is about getting steep and deep in the Kootenays. Join our Baldface Valhalla Tour for 2 days of private cat skiing at Baldface Valhalla plus you’ll get to ride the legendary resorts, Whitewater and Red Mountain. We’ve lined up a private snowcat just for our group and and you can be sure there’s plenty of untracked powder to go around with over 21,000 acres to roam.

ASAHIKAWA, HOKKAIDO

ASAHIKAWA FREERIDE

Asahikawa is Hokkaido’s second-largest city and boasts a reputation of having the most days with snowfall in all of Japan, as well as the record for the coldest temperature (-40°C) meaning conditions are consistently deep and cold all winter. On this trip you'll not only explore the backcountry areas within the Daisetsuzan National Park, including the famous Asahidake, but you’ll also ride the lesser known ski areas and a couple of our secret spots.

AUSTRIA

INNSBRUCK FREERIDE TOUR

Why should Innsbruck be on your snowboarding bucket list? The terrain is all-time, the locals friendly, the food distinctive, and the culture unique. Though Europe may seem out of reach without a dedicated travel budget, it’s worth a bit of planning and saving to make it happen and Innsbruck is the type of place you can spend one week or an entire winter.
