Escape the crowded resort lift lines and discover the ultimate powder skiing and snowboarding adventure with Club Powersports’ exclusive backcountry tours. Our snowmobile-shuttle and snowcat-access backcountry experiences combine the thrill of mountain riding with pristine, untracked ski terrain across over one million acres of Utah’s legendary snow-covered wilderness.

Perfect for skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels—from family-friendly terrain to steep-and-deep expert runs—our private backcountry tours deliver the experience of heli-skiing at a fraction of the cost.

What Makes Our Backcountry Tours Unique?

Snowmobile & Snowcat Shuttle Service to Untouched Terrain

Skip the grueling uphill climb. Our experienced guides transport you, your gear, and your crew directly to prime skiing and snowboarding zones using high-performance mountain snowmobiles (Ski-Doo Summit and Polaris Pro RMK models) or snowcats when deeper snow or larger groups require it. You focus on the downhill—we handle the logistics.

Backcountry Ski Tour FAQs

Do I need backcountry skiing experience?
No! Our tours accommodate all skill levels. You should be a confident intermediate skier/snowboarder comfortable on varied terrain, but prior backcountry experience is not required—our guides handle navigation and safety.

What if snow conditions aren’t ideal?
We monitor conditions daily and select tour locations with the best snow, terrain, and weather. Tours may be rescheduled if conditions are unsafe.

Can non-skiers join?
Absolutely. Non-skiing members of your group can enjoy snowmobile tours or heated side-by-side adventures while skiers hit the slopes. We reunite everyone for lunch and pickup.

How physically demanding is the tour?
Minimal! Since we shuttle you via snowmobile or snowcat, you avoid the strenuous uphill skinning required on traditional backcountry tours. You’ll focus your energy on the downhill runs.

What about avalanche safety?
All tours include avalanche safety equipment and are led by certified guides who assess conditions daily. We avoid high-risk zones and prioritize guest safety above all else.
