Avalanche Education Courses

So you figure it's steep and all white. "Looks good..you go first..." How to plan, evaluate & execute a successful ski/snowboard tour above treeline in the Rockies! Not an easy task, but we've got the answers!

Our goal is to enhance public safety through high quality avalanche education.

For the backcountry skier, snowboarder, heli-skier, snowmobiler, snow shoe hiker, or hut trip skier, awareness of snow pack stability is critical to the choice of route and successful/safe completion of the day's tour. Avalanche assessment and avoidance skills are of primary importance to those traveling through the winter backcountry.

Through our Avalanche Education Series, we offer three levels of high-quality avalanche instruction to address these needs.

Aspen Expeditions' professional AMGA certified or trained guides follow both AIARE* and AAA* international snow education standards. Our expertise combined with years of experience in mountain ranges throughout the world assure you the highest quality instruction available.
