Our freeride seminars are safety orientated. More than just a theoretical snow and avalanche course : practical field work… your guide will show you how to use rescue devices, how to read and understand the signs that the mountains give us.

Practical application of new skills is for us much more efficient than an out of context course. If you join us, feel free to set your objectives with your guide at the beginning of your trip, to get more than powder and meters… but also a technical background for a safer practice.
