Avy Safety 101 + state of the snowpack clinic

Join us for our Avy 101 Clinic, a free, one-hour introduction to avalanche awareness designed for anyone who loves being in the mountains. No complicated formulas, no warnings to stay home — just practical knowledge to help you understand avalanches, why they happen, and how to enjoy the backcountry safely. You’ll also learn about essential tools, including avalanche gear, forecasts, and resources for making smart decisions in the snow.

Complementing this, our State of the Snowpack session offers a fascinating look at the winter season so far. We’ll explore how weather and storms shape the snowpack and what that means for your backcountry adventures. Attendees will leave with a clear picture of the current snow conditions and how to use this knowledge to travel confidently and safely as the season unfolds.
