Intro to Backcountry Skiing with MTN Guiding
Discover Backcountry Skiing with MTN Guiding
Picture a day with no lift lines and no lift ticket, just you, your skis and quiet mountain terrain. Backcountry skiing is human-powered: you earn your turns on the way up, then enjoy fresh snow and wide-open space on the way down. It's freedom, fresh air and a whole new way to experience the mountains.
Curious to try it? Join ACMG guide Kevin Hjertaas for a supportive introduction to backcountry skiing, designed for intermediate resort skiers ready for something new.
You'll get comfortable with touring gear, learn to move efficiently uphill, and build the terrain and safety basics that make backcountry days enjoyable, all in a small, friendly group.
It's an affordable way to spend a day exploring beautiful terrain with an experienced mountain professional and come away with the confidence to keep going.
MTN Guiding also offers private days and AST 1 & 2 avalanche courses at mtnguiding.com.
