Snowkite Soldier is America's first full service guided  backcountry snowkite school.  Owner and  operator, Andrew Goldman began putting plans into motion last year.   Starting small and working out of his truck,  the school recognized a growing demand for backcountry kiting. 

Kiters who want to abandon flat lakes and featureless  terrain will find one of the country's most challenging kite destination in the  mountains of central Idaho.  With over 100 square miles to explore,  Snowkite Soldier guides clients in a variety of wind directions and snow  conditions with the assistance of snowmobiles, GPS and hand held radios.

Climbing mountains is a challenge and requires a different  set of kite skills then kiteboarding.   Mountains are frozen waves that do not brake.  Getting to the top and creatively descending  is an art and a backcountry skiers/snowboarders dream.  As a kite school, we felt it important to  name and map out the accessible kite terrain thus sharing a fraction of the  areas potential.  Many kite areas have  not been named and are referred to as “the goods” until a better name can be  found.

By exploring beyond the road, clients experience first hand  the art of exploration and will gain an insight into backcountry kiting as well  as a new found respect for the sheer magnitude of our area. Snowkite Soldier  recognizes that kiting is physically demanding and after a long day kiting our  clients want to unwind in a hot tub and share stories by a fire with a beverage  in hand. 

Situated in the shadow of peak 1, Soldier Lodge offers  cabins and an historical homestead from the 19th century called the  “tree house”.  The lodge has an extensive  dinning menu with Sushi offered as our house specialty. Clients wishing to cook  for them have access to our kitchen.   This season has proved to be very successful and plans for next year are  well underway. Programs are offered to suit all budgets and ability levels.
