Avalanche Courses in Alaska
Beacon, Probe, Shovel and Avalanche Education.
Take an avalanche class before you head into the snowy mountains. Skiing and riding in the backcountry is amazing but you should only do so if you've been educated. Knowing a little can go a long way. Nick is one of the American Avalanche Association's Professional Course Trainers and offers a high quality avalanche education experience. At a minimum, every backcountry user should take a Recreational Level 1 course. Once you’ve completed that, refresh and advance your skills with a private course. Taking the Rec Level 2 or Pro courses? Make the most out of your time and money - spend a day before the course with Nick to prepare for the advanced nature of these courses.
