Each year we offer 20 or more two-hour classroom avalanche awareness presentations followed in mid-winter by a full day on snow session. All courses are free and open to the public. We follow standards set by the American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education (AIARE) and the American Avalanche Association (AAA) and we consult with highly respected educators in Colorado and elsewhere on our curriculum and course development.
Participants must attend an avalanche awareness classroom in order to attend an on-snow session.
Our Classroom and On-Snow Sessions are NOT a replacement for an AIARE Level 1 Class. For a list of upcoming AIARE Level 1 classes please visit the AIARE Class list
