A new take on Avalanche Education, we’ve adapted the AIARE framework to a partially-online format to allow for increased field time with our guides!

During the 20/21 season, it only made sense to alter our avalanche education program to help mitigate the risks of spreading COVID-19 in an effort to better protect our guests, our staff and our community while continuing to provide what we love; an unparalleled learning experience in the mountains. The hybrid online + field days itinerary worked well, and we have decided to keep it as an option for our AIARE 1 courses moving forward.

Prerequisites

Backcountry 1.0 course, or 5-10 days of touring experience.

Technical

Must be an advanced intermediate skier/rider that is competent on and off-piste in a variety of conditions. This is comparable to confidence on all blue and most black diamond runs at the resort (including ungroomed terrain).

Fitness

Excellent physical fitness is required. Skiers must be able to hike for many hours at a time while carrying a pack.
Digital Learning
Self-Paced & Live Meeting

The digital component of the new AIARE 1 course will comprise both a self paced version and a live online meeting with your instructor and other students in your class.

Field Day 1
Skills & Techniques

A meet and greet with your group of 6 students and single instructor will be completed outdoors, likely at a trailhead. The day will comprise of an easy tour with stops through the day to work on terrain recognition and rescue skills.

Field Day 2
Skills & Techniques

The final day of the course builds on the prior day, culminating in a full planning session and execution of a backcountry tour.
