Platinum Package BEYOND ORDINARY
WELCOME TO TYAX LODGE & HELISKIING PRIVATE PLATINUM PACKAGE UNIQUE, LUXURIOUS, CUSTOM THE PROGRAM Our Platinum Package is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Exclusivity runs through every portion of the program. The Platinum Package offers the same unlimited single group skiing as our Signature Program, but we take every step to the next level. Indulge in the pampering of your own private team, including a concierge, massage therapist, chef, pilot and guides, while residing in your own private chalet. Complete your bucket list and create unforgettable memories. The Tyax Lodge & Heliskiing team will be waiting to greet you and take you to your private chalet. After a safety orientation and some essential paperwork, you will have the evening to settle in and make use of the amenities and spa, before your first gourmet dinner is served. Start the next day with a hearty breakfast and optional stretch class. Your private helicopter will be waiting for you outside the chalet when you are ready. Lunch is served in the mountains and each day after skiing, après ski is served. Enjoy massage treatments and body work, or simply relax in Spirit Bear chalet s private hot tub and/or hot rock sauna. On the final day of skiing, guests will return to the chalet mid-day to prepare for their departure. Please note that in some conditions we are unable to fly and will transport by ground to Vancouver or wherever the outbound destination is. 2
