AIARE Avalanche Courses for Gravity Haus Members

Gravity Haus has secured 18 spots for AIARE Level 1 Avalanche Safety classes in December, January + February (6 spaces/class). These hard-to-find classes are reserved for Gravity Haus members only on a first come first served basis. Regularly priced at $595/person, but available now to Gravity Haus members for $550/person.

THE COURSES

The courses are the standard AIARE Level 1 Avalanche 3-Day course, offered in the traditional classroom and field instruction format to introduce participants to the hazards of traveling in avalanche terrain.

Traveling in the backcountry requires a solid understanding of avalanche risk and the knowledge to mitigate these risks through appropriate terrain assessment and decision making. CAG’s AIARE certified leaders and instructors will teach you how to recognize, manage, and minimize these hazards and reduce risks.

You will learn:

  • Trip Planning and Preparation
  • Reading and understanding the avalanche forecast
  • Classifications and characteristics of different types of avalanches
  • Recognizing hazardous conditions
  • Understanding a mountain snowpack
  • Basics of route selection and terrain management
  • Managing risk and decision making
  • Human factors and influence
  • Efficient use of beacon/shovel/probe
  • Companion rescue techniques
  • Group management
