What you can expect

AIARE Rescue is appropriate for both new and experienced recreational backcountry travellers, as well as aspiring avalanche professionals. This one-day (8-hour) course is intended to be retaken on a regular basis. New participants will learn companion rescue, and returning students will expand their skills and knowledge with advanced topics and realistic scenario practice. AIARE recommends that all backcountry travellers keep their skills current by taking an Avalanche Rescue Course at least every other year. Each participant will receive professional coaching in rescue skills and will receive a certificate of completion at course end. The Rescue course is a prerequisite for the AIARE 2 and Pro 1 Courses.

For this class we must be able to contact you with vital information about the class including gear you need to bring and where to meet if conditions are adverse. Please actively reach out to us directly to provide us a good email and phone number!
