Course Description

 

The AIARE 1 is a three-day / 24-hour introduction to avalanche hazard management. Students can expect to develop a good grounding in how to prepare for and carry out a backcountry trip, to understand basic decision making while in the field, and to learn rescue techniques required to find and dig up a buried person (if an avalanche occurs and someone in the party is caught).

 

Who Should Take this Course

 

The AIARE 1 is for anyone, regardless of method of travel, who wants to recreate in or near avalanche terrain. Participants may have attended some awareness classes or workshops or completed the Avalanche Rescue course, but none are a prerequisite for this course.

Aspiring professionals will need to take the AIARE 1 and Avalanche Rescue as a prerequisite for the Pro 1 course.

 

Student Learning Outcomes

 

At the end of the AIARE 1 course the student should be able to:

 

  • Develop a plan for travel in avalanche terrain.

  • Demonstrate the ability to identify avalanche terrain.

  • Effectively use the AIARE Decision Making Framework to make terrain choices in a group setting

  • Demonstrate effective companion rescue.

 

Prerequisites

    This class what so helpful. The classroom day was via Zoom and the engagement and professionalism was so impressive. I actually preferred the Zoom setting. I have been a backcountry user for years and was interested in adding yet another weekend of training to my skills. There is ALWAYS more to learn to stay safe when negotiating avalanche terrain. I walked away with new things to practice and implement that I didn’t even know I was missing. The guides were so informative and experienced. Not to mention we got some awesome turns! I will 100% be furthering my backcountry education with Prival in the future. You should too!

    Such an amazing experience! Our instructors, Bruce and Tarah, were incredibly knowledgeable and engaging during the zoom session and out in the field. They catered to all levels of experience and were great at addressing questions on the fly. Being an east coaster, the big UT terrain is daunting, but after taking this class I feel equipped with a good knowledge base to make smart decisions when exploring the backcountry. Can’t wait to learn more. Thanks Prival!

    Firstly, the instructors/guides are exceptional. Tarah and Bruce are both very knowledgable, and also very adaptable to putting into context the scenarios that will be meaningful to you. It’s very refreshing to see guides with balanced and diverse skill sets and backgrounds. I had previously taken an Avy class that didn’t have such informative and actually useful documentation and study material. And taking this class opens you to so many resources it’s kinda insane. I feel so much more prepared to assess and evaluate risk while in the backcountry for myself. The backcountry is like a second language you’re constantly learning and Prival is like backcountry Rosetta Stone.
