In “Heli-Skiing Is the Best Drug I Have Ever Taken,” Huffington Post writer Blake Fleetwood waxes poetic on “floating down on clouds of my own creation” – the result of a day’s heli-skiing with Canada’s Mike Wiegele.
Says Fleetwood: “After eight runs of sheer delight, I approach my host Mike Wiegele with a smile on my face and say, “This was the best day of my life.””
Fleetwood reveals a new-found addiction for heli-skiing near Blue River, British Columbia: “Maybe it’s the altitude,” he writes, “but heli-skiing is like the best drug I have never taken, and it’s certainly as addictive. I want to go back again and again.”
