I’m sure most people have already heard about powder catskiing but at the same time I was surprised to find out how little people actually know about this wonderful sport. Cat skiing or snow cat skiing is offering fantastic thrills to skiers that have at least an intermediate experience on regular skiing slopes. Because of the increased level of risk, cat skiing is definitely not for beginners and not for the weak of heart. As opposed to regular skiing resorts where you have to get up the mountain using an uncomfortable ski lift, snow cat skiing makes use of warm and comfortable snowcats. These vehicles use tracks instead of wheels and this allows operators to take cat skiing enthusiasts to considerable heights which would take hours to reach on foot. Generally people thing that when planning a snow cat skiing vacation they can only include 3 or 4 of their friends. Well, this used to be true as this type of vehicle could only comfortably accommodate a relatively small number of people but not anymore as the vehicles used nowadays have no problem in transporting at least a dozen tourists up the mountain, or even more when attaching additional cabins in tow. Many don’t know this but you can go snow cat skiing or powder catskiing in numerous countries around the world. Of course, this does not mean in any way that you will have the same experience and there are destinations which have been voted as the top international powder catskiing locations. Another misconception about snow cat skiing is that when on this type of vacation people must settle for relatively bad living conditions and food. While this might still be true in a few cases, the truth is that many snow cat skiing operators nowadays welcome their customers with very comfortable lodges and even hotel rooms complete with all the luxuries you will ever need. Canada is recognized by powder catskiing enthusiasts from all over the world as the top destination for this kind experience. Thrills are pretty much guaranteed by snow cat skiing itself but this does not mean that you have to settle for anything but the best when it comes to comfort, mountain sceneries and entertainment. When it comes to accommodations for your powder catskiing vacation in Canada you will be pleased to find that you have the option of opting for a wide variety of choices, ranging from single bedrooms to small family apartments. Food is very important in order to have all the strength for a snow cat skiing day and this is why most companies specializing in powder catskiing services welcome their customers with well equipped kitchens that can handle extensive food menus including meals from various cuisines. Traditional options such as satellite TV and internet access are also pretty usual with most operators, but most people are not paying any attention to them due to the breathtaking sceneries. If you have never been on a cat skiing vacation, then simply start researching on the internet and then compare the results.
