Avy training is not a rubber stamp. Just because you sat through an avalanche class you are not permanently surrounded by a magic bubble that keeps you safe. It is up to you to maintain and upgrade your training in order to truly make a difference.
Just like anything if you don’t use it you will lose it!
We are working diligently to create new programs to support our community with fun and content rich training options that range from online reports and training videos to specialized field courses. Programs range from a few minutes to a few days.
