Lying to the west of the Canadian Rockies, the Purcell Mountains face the Rockies across the long Rocky Mountain Trench. Being much older than their neighbours, the Purcells are generally 1000 to 2000 feet lower than the Rockies.

Often confused with the Selkirk Mountains to the north, the Purcells have higher peaks.

The Purcell Mountains were first identified on a map prepared in 1859 by the Palliser Expedition. This expedition had been sent from England to explore routes suitable for a railway across British North America. The mountains were named for Goodwin Purcell, a medical doctor and teacher in Cork, and a member of the committee to select officers for the Palliser Expedition.

Panorama's RK Heli-Ski has several packages that appeal to a wide variety of guests.

All heliski packages include a Certified Guide (either ACMG or IFMGA), powder "fat" ski rental, breakfast and mountainside lunch.

Advance reservations are strongly recommended! Ask us for more information about including heliskiing in your next Panorama ski holiday! More info...
