Chugach Mountains, Alaska

Where are the Chugach Mountains?

The Chugach Mountains a division of the Pacific mountain system in western North America, are entirely situated within the U.S. state of Alaska. Stretching approximately 300 miles eastward along the coast, they form a prominent geographical feature.

Geologically smiled upon, the Chugach Mountains jut out of the North Pacific Ocean at improbably steep angles.

Why heliskiing here?

Between the endless array of peaks, ridges, and glaciers, lie endless couloirs, natural halfpipes and frozen waves, wide-open faces, powder-filled bowls, and scenic glacier runs. Most descents are around 3,500 vertical feet, but some runs are twice that. Mount Dimond, the sparkling gem in our backyard, serves up over 5,500 vertical feet. And there are even higher peaks deeper in the Chugach Range!
