Redeem your Aeroplan points for turns in the biggest heliski tenure

Aeroplan points have always been great, but they just got a whole lot cooler. Bella Coola Heli Sports, a B.C. heliski company, recently signed an agreement with Aeroplan, an air miles reward program, which allows collectors to trade points for skiing or fishing with Bella Coola.

The exclusive offer in the heliski world applies to two programs: a $1000 gift certificate towards a three day or five day all inclusive heliski package in the Coast Range near the central coast town of Bella Coola; or a five day, guided fly fishing trip for one person on one of the world class salmon and steelhead rivers near the Bella Coola valley.

Bella Coola's snow cred runs deep. The heliskiing company hires excellent guides and runs small groups into some of the biggest and snowiest mountains in Canada. This winter they've formally amalgamated with their sister heli-ski company Pantheon to form the largest heliski tenure in North America and one of the largest in the world. There is now 1.1 million hectares, that's 2.64 million acres, of mountains that range from the rugged coast to the light powder of the Chilcotin.
