Avalanche Course
This avalanche course gives you the science, field skills, and decision-making frameworks to travel safely in avalanche terrain. From reading snowpack and interpreting forecasts to executing a full companion rescue, every module is built around real-world application. If you spend time in the mountains, this training could save your life or someone else's.

What will I learn?
You will learn how snow forms, layers, and fails, and how those processes drive avalanche release. You will develop a systematic approach to hazard assessment using field observations, snowpack tests, and public forecast products. The course covers terrain classification, route selection, and group management protocols for reducing exposure. You will build hands-on proficiency with avalanche transceivers, probes, and shovels through structured rescue sequences. Advanced topics include persistent slab problems, wind slab detection, and wet avalanche timing. Trip planning, emergency response preparation, and in-field decision adaptation round out the full curriculum.
