The Package - Yurtski’s best! Make your trip one to remember!
$150 per person/per night (includes private yurt stay, meals, and gear shuttle. min. 4).
Meet us at the trailhead with your skis and gear; we’ll take care of the rest! You and your personal gear will be towed into the yurts where a hot lunch will be waiting. We’ll come up with an itinerary that meets group goals as we enjoy lunch and discuss snowpack. After skiing, we’ll return to the yurt where appetizers will be served. A multi-course dinner prepared by classically trained Red Bird Restaurant Chefs Dominick Martin or Matt Cornetti will follow. We’ll then retire to the guide yurt and leave your group to enjoy the rest of the evening in privacy relaxing by the fire chatting and playing games. In the morning you’ll be woken up with coffee, tea and a hot breakfast. Afterwards, we’ll pack a lunch as you prepare for the day. Our certified guides will break trail, assess the snowpack, and lead you to the best terrain. After a full day of incredible powder skiing, we’ll return to the yurt for another fantastic meal. Subject to availability. Sunday and Monday trips are recommended. Book early for best dates. Beer and Wine pairings available for extra charge. Menus can be catered to dietary needs and requests or have a themed menu…Indian to Italian, you name it and we’ll make it happen!
Guided Tours
$150 per day (not including yurt stay or gear haul).
The mountains can be an inhospitable environment to recreate in, especially during the winter. Heavy snow and poor visibility can end trips or keep you wondering what’s on the other side of that ridge. So let us keep you on the right track! We’ll discuss group goals and then tailor a tour that satisfies your needs. Our guides will break trail, assess snowpack and bring you to prime terrain where you’ll experience some of Montana’s finest cold smoke powder skiing. Our guides pride themselves in having a professional attitude and a very intimate knowledge of the area. They have been trained by Rod Newcomb and certified in snow safety by the American Avalanche Institute. They also hold CPR, and first aid certifications. and have skied their way around the world, from the Matterhorn to Montana’s deepest backcountry. Make the most of your trip by hiring a guide. (Two guides per group with a maximum ratio of 1:4)
