Pass By: Canadian Rockies, Canadian Rockies, Alberta

Leaving the valley and flying up entry creek you will soar over Cline Pass at 10,000 ft (3048m) to view the expansive panoramic view of the Rocky Mountains.

Reducing our altitude we will fly you into the Coup de grace of the tour – The 6 Glaciers.

Cline Glacier
White Goat Glacier
Lion Glacier
Lioness Glacier
Resolute Glacier
Hanging Glacier

From the glaciers, you are off to Michelle Lakes. The Twin lakes is divided by a 50 ft (15m) waterfall which homes the beautiful Golden Trout. Michelle lakes is at an elevation of 7,545 ft (2299m). The lake then leads to a 900 ft (275m) waterfall that plunges into Waterfalls Creek. Following Waterfalls Creek back to the Cline River Valley we will fly by the White Goat Provincial Park. Looking to the east tucked up one of the valleys is a mountain that is an oxidized orange mountain due to the ferric iron content.

Starting our long descent to the heliport you will view the beautiful vista of the glacial blue water of Abraham Lake.

Absolutely the most amazing thing we've ever got to experience !! We are already planning on going back and possibly doing a summer tour in the summer... Ralph was great and fun and friendly and most of all made us feel safe and told us alot of interesting info about the mountains and things around there . Highly recommend people to check this out and even if your nervous as a first time flyer (like i was) don't be scared !! I wasn't even scared one bit I had a smile glued on my face and it was quite the thrill .

This helicopter ride was a great experience! I’d give the pilot and the company five stars. But I would say one thing about TripAdvisor – this flight came up when I searched “activities IN Banff”. That’s not correct we drove 2 1/2 hours to get to the meeting point.
