Women's AIARE

Avalanche Certification Courses

Expand your avalanche education in one of our three courses taught by AIARE certified instructors and professionals.

Women's AIARE 1

2 DAY Training: $475

Our first ever LADIES ONLY level 1 course! The AIARE 1 is a two-day course that provides an introduction to using decision making tools to help a group manage risk while traveling in avalanche terrain. Students can expect to develop a good grounding in how to prepare for and carry out a backcountry trip, to understand basic decision making while in the field, and to learn rescue techniques required to find and dig up a buried person (if an avalanche occurs and someone in the party is caught).

Must be able to traverse the backcountry on snowmobile. Open to snowbikes but not snowbike specific.

Women's AIARE Rescue

1 Day Training: $175

Avalanche Rescue is for everyone, whether you are just learning how to use your transceiver, an aspiring professional, or a backcountry traveler with many years of backcountry experience. This one-day course is a place to both learn new skills and keep your existing skills sharp. Avalanche Rescue is a prerequisite for the AIARE 2.
