Past the rope. With the right people.
Half-day or full-day clinics covering ski touring technique, avalanche safety, navigation and route planning. Lift-access or skinning, your call.
Adventures, big or small.
We're passionate about experiencing adventures with you. No matter how big or small. Our touring and off-piste clinics are perfect for someone interested in venturing away from the pistes. It's a jam-packed half-day or full-day giving you a solid understanding of the basic principles around skiing off-piste, either lift access or ski touring.
Guests should have a good level of fitness and be comfortable skiing red and black runs. Off-piste experience not essential.
