	Old Trip
	This is the sign up and organization page for an old trip. It already happened. Please do not sign up for it.

Introduction

Typically, the AST-1 course occurs in late January but it seems people are keen in taking the course earlier this year. Spaces are limited, and it fills up quickly, so make sure to sign up early if you want a spot. This course is a heck of a lot cheaper than than taking a course open to the public.

It is a good idea for anyone who is interested in travelling in the back country to take an avalanche course. Avalanche course students learn about some snow science basics, terrain, route finding, snow stability testing and rescue.

This years course is being done by Canada West Mountain School

The course will be exactly the same as this one

It is required that students read the material from CWMS as well as go through the online course before the classroom session.
