Avalanche Skills Training 2 (part 2 of 2)
January 20 @ 8:00 am - January 21 @ 4:00 pm
$650.00
Delve deeper and expand your backcountry knowledge.
AST 2 builds on the foundations of your AST 1 and is a great choice after you have gained some experience in the backcountry.
The AST 2 curriculum is built around the daily process, emulating the same approach used by professionals. It expands on the foundations of your AST 1 and provides a more advanced decision-making framework for travelling in avalanche terrain.
Our AST 2 course takes place over 4 days, split across 2 weekends in January. This unique structure will give you the opportunity to absorb what you learn in the first two days, monitor what is happening to the snowpack over the week, and put your theories to the test the following weekend as you observe how the snowpack has changed.
You must have completed Avalanche Skills Training 1 in order to book the Avalanche Skills Training 2 course.
