Avalanche Rescue Level 1

These two-night, three-day courses, offered by Aspen Alpine Guides, enable all participants to experience backcountry conditions within the Hut system by using the backcountry huts as a base for the course and fieldwork. The course includes a loaner kit of Beacon, Shovel, and Probe from Ortovox, course registration fees, field and course handbooks, hut fees for Friday and Saturday nights. Participants are responsible for their own food for the duration of the course although group meals are encouraged and should be coordinated by the participants.
