#5. HELI-SKIING
Taking a ski lift seems pretty sissy when you can hitch a ride to the top of the mountain in a helicopter. Heli-skiing operators have access to more backcountry terrain, which means while you’re snowplowing down a single black diamond hill these dudes are zipping down a double black dodecahedron hill.

Snow kiting (or kite skiing) looks like a cool alternative to skiing so long as you don’t catch air and roam into some power lines.
