Ski bumps are a efficient and fun way to access the mind blowing terrain in and around Valdez/Thompson Pass. Compared to a snowmachine ski bump, Airplane Ski Bumps are quicker and quieter. Snowboarding, splitboarding and skiing, airplane bumps depart from the Thompson Pass airport near the Alaska Snowboard Guides operation at the end of the Tailgate Alaska parking lot. Ski bumps are generally first come/first serve and can be pre-arranged by calling Zack at 907-322-2903.
