<h3><em>"If you haven't gone Heli-Hiking, you haven't lived!"</em></h3> <p align="right">- M.S., 2008</p> <br> <p><strong>Are you looking for a unique vacation this summer?</strong> <ul> <li>- An experience that combines rugged mountain wilderness with pampered relaxation and exquisite food? </li> <li>- An experience where you set your own pace while learning about the environment as you explore? </li> <li>- What about interesting company? Looking to share stories of discovery with like-minded people?</li> </ul> You can do all of this and more! CMH Heli-Hiking caters to the rank beginner as well as the seasoned mountain veteran.</p> <br /> &nbsp <h4>Ability Guide</h4> <p>Our guests vary widely in ability and interests. But with careful selection on the part of our guides, the mountains can offer a thrilling experience to everyone. Your guides keep in close touch with you throughout your stay, to ensure that we are meeting your expectations. </p> <p>Our hiking groups, organized according to interests and abilities, vary in size. We often have seven guides for a lodge at its full, 44-person, capacity, so there will usually be four flights for as many as seven different hikes. The idea is to fit your mountain exploration within the boundaries of your fitness and wishes. </p> <p>The following will give you a general idea of how our guides determine hiking groups:</p> <h4>> RIGOROUS</h4> <p><strong>You are very active and enjoy strenuous, fast paced activities.</strong></p> <br /> <h4>> MODERATELY CHALLENGING </h4><p><strong>You exercise regularly (3 or 4 times a week) and want to challenge yourself by hiking full days on varied terrain(i.e. hiking over a pass, along ridges or perhaps reaching a peak).</strong></p> <br /> <h4>> MODERATE </h4><p><strong>You exercise less occasionally, enjoy hiking for a full day but prefer to do so at a more relaxed pace.</strong> </p> <br /> <h4>> GENTLE </h4><p><strong>You want the opportunity to explore a mountain environment in a relaxed manner.</strong></p> <br> <p><strong>Still have questions?</strong> Check out our <a href="/heli-hiking/trips/faq">Heli-Hiking Trip Q&A</a> or give us a call at 1.800.661.0252. </p>
