Best Friend Helicopter Skiing

Friends since grade school, Eric and his best friend, Rich Howe, have dreamed of going helicopter skiing together for more than twenty years. That dream was finally realized a few weeks ago when the two of them flew with Powderbird Heli-guides in the Wasatch mountains in Utah.

It was a picture perfect day. More than three feet of new snow had fallen in the mountains in the previous few days and the birds hadn't flown that week. Needless-to-say, plenty of deep fresh powder was found nearby and the guys enjoyed first tracks all day long. They came home exhausted and giddy from the fabulous day!
