Frequently Asked Catski Questions

What is catskiing? We access backcountry terrain with snowcats in order to ski or board untracked snow. A snowcat is a large vehicle with tracks (resorts use them to groom runs), we put a large carrier on the back that holds up to 12 people. The inside of the carrier has comfortable seats, a stereo system and enough food and drinks for the day. This is a very comfortable and safe way to experience untracked powder in the backcountry and a "must do" for any skier or snowboader.

    A typical day is 10-12 runs, approximately 15,000 vertical feet. At Powder Cowboy Catskiing you'll find a smaller group of skiers, 6 to 12 with a maximum of 24 guests (instead of 36+ at other operations). We offer some unique options like 6 Pack Skiing we can break the group into 2 small groups of 6, each with its own cat or Cheetah Skiing, your group of 12 gets two cats. Even a fast group will never wait!
