You can resort ski in Nevada in a few popular locations, but there is only one operator offering heli-skiing in Nevada Ruby mountains, and that’s Ruby Mountain Heli which has an admirable position in the industry, because they have the only heli skiing tenure in the state of Nevada.
Yet, consider all the resort skiing possibilities in Nevada! Go skiing at Mt. Rose between Reno, Nevada and Incline Village. Or,go over the hill from Carson City, NV on highway 50, on your way to Northstar Resort or Palisades Tahoe. On that path, you can stop on your way at in Incline Village, NV and ski Diamond Peak Ski Resort. Or you go big and ski the Nevada side of Heavenly Valley!
But if you’re a true blue, backcountry powder chaser, and you want a helicopter as your lift so you can actually heli ski Nevada, you’re going to have to find your way to Elko, Nevada. Then take a short run 10 miles over to Lamoille, Nevada and up the hill to the secluded Ruby 360 Lodge. That’s where the heli-pad is! That’s where your real adventure begins!
