Ski The Tasman takes place in an uncontrolled, serious high alpine environment. Skiing, snowboarding, and flying in mountain areas carries a certain element of risk.
These risks include, but are not limited to:
- Avalanches
- Rock or ice fall
- Falling
- Crevasse hazard
- Weather and other environmental hazards
- Human related hazards caused by participants
- Aircraft failure
Alpine Guides has been operating heliskiing activities since around 1976. In that time we have had around 50,000 skier days.
Since that time there have been accidents, including fatalities in our ski operations. However, by ski guiding international standards we have a very low accident rate. There have been no serious accidents on Ski The Tasman since 1978.
Anyone participating with Ski The Tasman must understand that despite the experience and qualifications of our guides, we cannot provide a 100% guarantee of safety in this environment.
Participants registering for our activities are required to follow their guide's instructions explicitly.
