MOUNTAIN SAFETY COURSES
Enjoying the freedom of skiing offpiste is at the heart of what we do - But that's not to say it doesn't come without its risks.
Whether you've been exploring the mountains all your life, or you're relatively new to offpiste, everyone should know the dangers, or more importantly, know how to avoid dangers when in the backcountry
We wish to increase your freedom, pleasure and safety for snow sports amateurs, by focusing on the knowledge and prevention of avalanche risks.
Our mountain safety courses are a one day course, designed to introduce you to the basics of backcountry safety, brush up on some long forgotten skills, and give you helpful tips for planning your future adventures.
