Randonnée or Telemark

This day tour is a follow up application tour to do after our Intro to Backcountry Skiing. It provides more application of skills with refinement through tips and coaching. We keep a more consistent pace and climb higher and farther with more ski descents than our "Intro" day.

We continue ever so important practice with our avalanche safety gear with a quick impromptu practice en route. It can be taken consecutively, the day after your Intro day to form a 2-day course.

Skills include:
  • Group assesment
  • Pre-tour planning
  • Transceiver, probe and shovel review
  • Hazards assessment
  • Uphill and downhill ski coaching
