The Chugach · Alaska

Ridgeline Lodge

The entire lodge · from $28,000 a night

Spend like a billionaire

The first two weeks of April are taken

A timber lodge on a lake beneath the Chugach, with two helicopters and a million acres of spines, couloirs and powder no one has skied. Mountain guides, avalanche forecasters and a medic are yours for the week; your skis are tuned every night and your boots warm every morning. In summer the same helicopters fly you to glaciers, grizzlies and salmon rivers.

  • Two helicopters, yours alone
  • A million acres of terrain
  • Guides, forecasters and a medic

Best time to go

March to April

March and April, when the days are long and the snowpack is deep and stable. Summer brings glaciers, fishing and bears instead.
