Every October Alpine Helicopters is proud to send a representative to the International Congress of Alpine Rescue(ICAR). Last year the event was held in Chamonix, France where Mountain Rescuers,Doctors,Avalanche Specialists and Pilots all gathered to exchange information and techniques in mountain rescue. The Congress is generally attended by about 400 people from all over the world. The information, techniques and technology discussed and demonstrated is invaluable to keeping our Rescue Pilots at the leading edge. As an addition to the conference two of our Rescue Pilots were also able to visit our friends from Air Zermatt who graciously gave us a tour of their facility in Zermatt. This October we will once again be sending one of our Rescue Pilots to Zakopane, Poland to attend this years conference.

Great visit from our favourite meowtain cat - @greatgramsofgary 🚁Check out what Gary had to say below!
.
“In Gary’s continuing quest to become a search and rescue cat, he paid a visit to his friends at Alpine Helicopters. Alpine provides support to @parks.canada and @alberta_parks visitor safety specialists by flying all the rescue missions here in the Bow Valley.
.
Their pilots are some of the best around, and they’ve helped pioneer many mountain rescue techniques. While Gary (and his social media manager) hope to never need them, it’s nice to know they’re ready to respond if something does go wrong on one of our adventures.
.
On a happier note, Alpine also supports lots of fun things to do in the area - servicing back country lodges, heli-ski operations, and offering helicopter tours of the area!
.
Thanks Alpine Helicopters for everything you do for the Valley”

Thanks for the visit Gary 🐈
