Cat skiing

Topic

Cat skiing, also known as snowcat skiing, is a form of guided backcountry skiing and snowboarding where participants are transported up the mountain in the heated cab of a snowcat rather than using traditional ski lifts or helicopters. This mechanized transport allows skiers to access remote, untouched powder snow and off-trail terrain in a natural mountain environment. It serves as a popular, more cost-effective, and weather-resilient alternative to heli-skiing.
