2025 “After AST” Season-Long Mentorship

A FRESH TAKE ON AVALANCHE EDUCATION

A season-long look at the snowpack and backcountry travel in the Sea to Sky. The group will meet once a month for a ski tour in the Sea to Sky Corridor.

The focus will be on terrain familiarity, progression + season-long mentorship to build confidence and become a better + more confident backcountry skier.

We will focus on the process and developing a systematic approach to planning and choosing a local ski tour and then making decisions while out in the backcountry.

We will meet as a group once a month to grow familiarity in the backcountry around the S2S, track the season history of the snowpack and build the skills + awareness of the many ski zones in the area. The goal is to build a strong foundation and a terrain catalogue to spur ideas for future tours. Skiing with the same group and guide throughout the season offers a chance to address new ideas as they come up, as conditions change, and have the direct mentorship from a certified guide. A fresh take on long-term avalanche education beyond just a weekend course.
