Avalanche Education - Field Session
Photography by Jonathon Spitzer |
Guides are happy to teach avalanche hazard evaluation skills during a full or half day private tour. Dig snowpits, perform stability tests, practice beacon search and rescue scenarios, travel up and downhill while employing avalanche-hazard mitigation procedures, and learn safe route-finding skills.
Many participants do avalanche-oriented ski tours, enabling them to learn and apply skills under the tutelage of a professional. Ski touring partners often spend a day in the early season with a guide to make sure they are all on the same page, and build trust in one another.
