Avalanche Education
AIARE Level 1, Level 2, & Companion Rescue
AIARE Level 1
The AIARE 1 is a three-day course, designed to acquaint students with a systematic way to manage risk while traveling in avalanche terrain. A main objective of the course is to use avalanche terrain recognition to minimize exposure of objective hazards presented in the backcountry.
