View the Monashees Photo Gallery - take peek inside the lodge and see the latest photos from the field.

The Monashees present perhaps the most challenging skiing of any of our areas and are suitable only for experienced CMH Heli-Skiers who normally ski in the fastest group in other CMH areas. Between 60 and 90 percent of Monashees skiing is in a mature, naturally well-spaced forest. Along with some of the best tree skiing on earth, the Monashees is also admired for its long, consistently steep-pitched runs.

Monashees also accommodates private groups with a maximum of four skiers throughout the season. Operating independently from our regular program, these private groups enjoy unlimited skiing thanks to their private helicopter and two guides.

Notable runs: Steep and Deep, Elevator, Bavaria
