Motorized Compantion Rescue 1 day class

DECISION MAKING IN AVALANCHE TERRAIN
Ski & Splitboard Only

(Snowshoers Please See Our Snowshoe Specific Course)

AIARE 1 is a three-day / 24-hour introduction to avalanche hazard management. Students can expect to develop a good grounding in how to prepare for and carry out a backcountry trip, to understand basic decision making while in the field, and to learn rescue techniques required to find and dig up a buried person (if an avalanche occurs and someone in the party is caught).

LEARNING OUTCOMES
- At the end of the AIARE 1 course, the student should be able to:
- Develop a plan for travel in avalanche terrain
- Demonstrate the ability to identify avalanche terrain
- Effectively use The AIARE Risk Management Framework to make terrain choices in a group setting
- Demonstrate effective companion rescue

Aspiring professionals need to take AIARE 1 and Avalanche Rescue as a prerequisite for the Pro 1 course.

AIARE 1 Snowshoe
DECISION MAKING IN AVALANCHE TERRAIN
Designed Specifically for Snowshoers

(Skiers & Splitboarders Please See Ski & Ride Specific Courses.)

Do you want to snowshoe in or near avalanche terrain? This class is for students who use snowshoes to travel on snow. AIARE 1 is a three-day / 24-hour introduction to avalanche hazard management. Students can expect to develop a good grounding in how to prepare for and carry out a backcountry trip, to understand basic decision making while in the field, and to learn rescue techniques required to find and dig up a buried person (if an avalanche occurs and someone in the party is caught).

AIARE 2 provides backcountry travelers an opportunity to increase decision-making skills in more complicated situations such as being a leader within a small travel group, traveling in more complicated terrain, and/or developing a travel plan where online resources are scarce. AIARE 2 builds on the introductory avalanche hazard management model introduced in AIARE 1 and adds to it the evaluation of critical hazard assessment factors. Students will describe and discuss weather, snowpack, and avalanche processes, and identify how these processes relate to observations and travel within avalanche terrain.
