Great experience. Pilot was very good and gave a running commentary.
Ground staff were very helpful moving our flight to a time later in the day when we could definitely be able to land on the snow

Everyone from the driver, check-in staff and pilot was extremely friendly & accommodating.
This was my first time flying in a helicopter and I was so high on life after. I believe this is what we call blissful equanimity - such a meditative but also elating feeling.
I appreciated the pilot's commentary as well. Kind of regret that I didn't dare to go straight for the heli hike, but hey - something for next time!
