Fifty years of Ruby magic
Ruby Mountain Heli has been an Upwind client for more than ten years, for both their websites and their photography and video. The new helicopterskiing.com replaces WordPress with a fast static site on a headless CMS.
Guests book departures through a custom cart with live seat inventory, seat holds and Stripe deposits; calendar packages handle date-based reservations. Every one of the 671 legacy URLs was preserved so rankings carried straight over.

“Since 2015, we have used Matt’s photography and editing skills to produce thousands of quality photographs and videos to help promote our businesses and strengthen our content. Not only does Matt do photo work for us multiple times each year, he has also completely redesigned and recreated both of our business websites, producing clean, easy to navigate, informative, and modern sites to attract visitors on the web. We receive countless compliments on our websites from our guests as well as the photographs and videos Matt has produced. We would give Matt the highest possible recommendation and we wouldn’t want to work with anyone else. Matt is truly a master at his work.”
