Catskiing coming to Terrace, British Columbia
A few days ago Molly Mcnulty (a reporter for Terrace standard) informed readers that Terrace will now be joining Catskiing program. Isn’t that a great news for ski lovers?
According to HeliCat Canada 95 per cent of the world’s heli-skiing and snowcat operations run out of B.C. due to its deep snow pack and abundant snow falls. No doubt, BC tour operators and other winter based BC tourism businesses are super busy. (If you are a BC Tourism business, then connect with us at BC Travel Guide)
