Touring Technique Course
With a focus on the basic skills you need to plan and carry out avalanche-safe summit trips.
Day 1: Takes place in the ski resort Vestvatn, about 1 hour's drive from Bodø. Here we work with basic skiing technique aimed at ski touring. Basic position, balance and speed control are keywords for the day. The level is adapted to the group and the goal is for everyone to feel a little better equipped for the descents. The day ends with trip planning and reviewing the necessary equipment for the next day.
Day 2: Used out in the mountains we chose the day before in consultation. Here there will be a thorough introduction to the use of touring skis, bindings, shoes and skins. Before we leave, we carry out a check of the send/receiver. During the trip, the focus is on safe route choices by recognizing and avoiding avalanche terrain. Finally, the descent awaits where we seek flow, while we make sure that the whole group gets down.
