Theory and the art of survival.
What personal and group equipment we carry in our rucksack for a days off-piste or touring in the mountains.
We explain why we carry it and its use.
Heading to a local spot in the valley, we learn various techniques of being able to stay comfortable, warm and safe for an extended period of time.
We go through the ways of using a group shelter to building a basic snow shelter with just the basic equipment that we have with us for a day off-piste skiing, off-piste snowboarding or touring into the back country.
Followed is practical training on building basic snow shelters.
Plus ideas and tips to make an enforced stay more comfortable and safe.
Thanks to Arc’teryx the course will be subsidised.
