This comprehensive course focuses on hazard evaluation, decision-making, and companion rescue in avalanche terrain. Learn from our AMGA-trained and certified ski and splitboard guides. Discover techniques for evaluating hazards and managing risk when traveling through avalanche terrain. Mammut Avalanche Safety gear is available to demo during the course.All AIARE 1 courses at our Rocky Mountain location utilize a hybrid learning model. The course starts as soon as you enroll with an online learning module. Then you’ll meet with your instructor via an evening video chat session two days before the course starts. If the field days start Saturday, you would meet with your instructor Thursday evening to review the online learning, discuss the current avalanche hazard forecast and plan the tours for the field days.<h4>Prerequisites:</h4>These courses are for downhill skiers and boarders. All participants must travel on touring skis or splitboards during the course and be comfortable riding black diamond terrain at the resort or ungroomed backcountry snow on slopes up to 30 degrees (blue square). If you are new to touring or looking to polish your skills before your AIARE 1, check out our Backcountry Essentials course.Learning to negotiate the backcountry takes years of dedication and practice. We encourage all backcountry travelers to continue their avalanche education yearly. In addition to the AIARE 1, we also offer Avalanche Rescue and AIARE 2 courses as well as a number of camps and clinics that get you into the mountains!<h4>Itinerary:</h4>Our AIARE 1 Avalanche courses take advantage of the amazing terrain in the Rocky Mountains to help jump-start your touring career. We use a hybrid course model to maximize your time in the mountains. The course starts with an online learning module that you gain access to once you register. Two days before your course starts, you’ll meet with your instructor for an evening of virtual learning using video chat. The course will officially begin in the field where you’ll spend two full day tours traveling through the mountains practicing techniques for managing avalanche hazard.Course Logistics:Course logistics will be shared by The Mountain Guides ahead of the course.Need rentals?
