Small Group
Private Cat
Bring your group. Steep and tight or wide open, it’s your way, all day.
Private and Personal.
About fifteen years ago some heli-skiing companies began using smaller helicopters to cater to small private groups, thus revolutionizing the industry. Mustang Powder is now utilizing this concept in catskiing. It started in 2010 with the introduction of our Small Groups, Steep Chutes program, and now continues with the addition of our Small Group, Private Cat program.
Benefits
Yes, it costs more because there are fewer people in the cat, but the benefits will make the upgrade worthwhile:
- Groups are able to travel through the terrain faster and smoother
- Loading and unloading the cat is quicker and easier
- Groups are able to ski more runs in a day
- Guides are better able to tailor the ski day to the groups ability
- It is much easier to organize a group of six than a group of twelve
- The lodge experience for the Private Cat guests will be the same as for the large cat guests – with double or single occupancy on our main two guests bedroom floors.
The dates for Private Cat offerings will be posted on our Availability page, as dates become available. Please keep in mind that this is a Private Cat program, not a a Small Group program. This means that the whole cat will need to be booked by a group organizer for six to seven people – seats will not be sold to individuals (except in the case of a last minute cancellation at the discretion of the group organizer).
As the current ski season progresses, keep checking the website for dates that open up for next year’s Private Cats. Or better yet, contact us now to express your interest, and we will slot you into a Private Cat when dates open up.

THE
Dates
Peak season at Mustang typically books out quickly, often with returning guests. We recommend inquiring a year in advance to be on the waitlist for your desired dates. We give preference to skiers and riders who have been to Mustang before, meaning that by booking early or late season dates you’ll be more likely to be able to join a group or book a private cat in the future.
The
Cats
At Mustang Powder we operate with Pisten Bully (PB) snowcats. With a fleet of cats at the ready, we are able to accommodate different groups and programs at the same time. There are also cats ready as backups and for road building, meaning that even mechanical issues won’t slow things down.
THE
Lodge
With over 12,000 sq. ft. Mustang Lodge is roomy and comfortable. After skiing you can enjoy drinks, conversation and appetizers – and watch the alpine glow from the lounge; or play billiards in the mezzanine area. Guests have a large drying room adjacent to the main entrance, so no boots or ski clothes need go to your bedroom. If the weather is pleasant, you may want to enjoy your morning coffee and watch the sunrise from the deck area.
