It’s important to let your guide know if you have any pre-existing medical conditions (such as motion sickness, fear of heights, heart conditions, pregnancy, asthma and musculoskeletal issues) prior to the tour. This will help us cater the tour to your needs and make your trip more enjoyable.

We encourage guests to Leave No Trace and observe the Backcountry Responsibility Code:

• Have the skills and the fitness – know your skiing/riding ability and stay in control at all times.
• Check the weather and Alpine Hazard Report before departing
• Have the right gear – including avalanche recue basics
• Leave what you find – do not pick or remove anything natural
• Dial it back and space it out
