For experienced alpine skiers and boarders looking to get off the beaten tracks and find remote mountain places our Off-piste (backcountry) skill development clinics are for those wishing to develop ski technique to explore the mountains outside the boundary rope. In different snow conditions and terrains; introductions to Ski-touring; the use of Nordic gear and a telemark turn. For boarders an introdcution to a splitboard might be the way to go.
To ski off-piste while maintaining a degree of safety requires good navigational skills, awareness of the risks of the mountain environment in winter, and the knowledge and experience to assess and test snow conditions to minimise the risk from avalanche. Finally knowing what equipment is required for avalanche rescue and how to use it is essential. Accommodation is in comfortable catered chalets, apartments or hotels. |
