Teton Springs Lodge Heli Ski – High Mountain Heli: Facts & FAQ
Compared to some of the more remote heli skiing locations in places like British Columbia and Alaska, getting to Teton Springs Lodge Heli Ski is easy, affordable, and quick. Most visitors first fly into Idaho Falls Regional Airport (IDA), located just 70 miles west of Victor. The drive from the airport takes around 1 hour and 15 minutes. Optionally, you can fly into Jackson Hole Airport and enjoy a 20-minute shorter ride. Flights are generally more expensive to this location.
This ease of access does come with its caveats, however. Many remote operators offer shuttle and transfer services directly from the airport. With Teton Springs Lodge, you’ll have to either rent a car or facilitate a private transfer to your accommodations.
The beauty of staying at Teton Springs Lodge for your Idaho heli skiing trip is that you aren’t forced into one specific type of room. The lodge is not directly owned by High Mountain Heli and has a variety of accommodation options that can be completely customized to meet your needs.
