Avalanche Skills Refresher<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Update your avalanche skills with a one-day refresher that can be tailored to the aspirations of the group. Under the direction of an experienced avalanche professional, the day can revise concepts and exercises from a previously attended Avalanche Awareness or Avalanche Skills Course 1 or 2. The day can include coaching on trip planning, terrain analysis, avalanche assessment and decision-making, through to practicing and fine-tuning skills on companion rescue scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our Avalanche Skills Refreshers are practical field days run in either the Cardrona<\/a> backcountry or the Motutapu Conservation Area adjacent to the Treble Cone <\/a>ski field. For access through Treble Cone, a lift pass is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This day with an experienced mountain or ski guide will revise and help consolidate the knowledge and concepts introduced in previous courses. The result will enable you to more confidently make decisions to safely travel in more challenging terrain and on multi-day trips away from a public avalanche forecast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day will begin with a morning meeting to discuss the anticipated conditions and the implications for the avalanche hazard and travel choices. At the end of the day, a debrief will assist in reflection on the learnings from the day.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
