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
Since not everyone could attend the course in December, there is a second course being offered. 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 the one found here:http://www.themountainschool.com/avalanche-weekend.html]
It is required that students read the material from CWMS as well as go through the online course before the classroom session.
