3 days of guided touring with a small group min. 4 people max. 8 people
Not only will you be guided to the best powder on the day by guides who've grown up in the area, but they'll talk you through their process.
You'll learn about what they look for to assess the terrain, how to deal with emergency situations, map and GPS navigation and pick your line.
How well should I be able to ski?
No stress on black slopes, short turns are easy. You should have a decent amount of off piste experience, even if its not all touring specifically.
How fit do I have to be?
Your fitness needs to be solid, the climbs can last up to 3 hours - 700m of elevantion.
Ideally you would have done that before so you know exactly what to expect of yourself, remember this is fitness at altitude.
