This webinar is designed for skiers and split boarders eager to step off the groomed trails and into the wilderness. This webinar covers essential skills including gear selection and use, navigation, terrain selection,
and basic backcountry techniques. You’ll learn how to use avalanche safety gear, assess snow conditions, and make informed decisions while skiing in the backcountry. With expert instruction from Ski Guide Doug Latimer and a focus on safety, this course is
the perfect first step for anyone wanting to enjoy the thrill of skiing in untouched snow!
Cancellation Policy If a participant is unable to attend a paid course or trip, there will be no refund unless the participant finds a suitable replacement that is acceptable to the trip coordinator. Acceptable waiting list candidates will have priority. It will then be the participant's responsibility to recover funds from the replacement. If the coordinator cancels an event, participants get a refund (less any non-recoverable costs). Note that ACC National does not refund hut fees due to weather, delay, closures, or any other reasons. The Rocky Mountain Section of the ACC is a not for profit club and we only charge attendees what it costs us to provide courses or trips.
