Our final installment of this year's Backcountry Beta in partnership with TREW Gear is a one-hour workshop designed to provide you with the tools to confidently lead a backcountry tour, whether it’s skinning up your local mountain, or pursuing a big peak. The session will be led by Erika Florian, an AIARE Level 1, Level 2, and Rescue-certified backcountry skier. Erika has experienced the all too common barriers that come along with being a woman in this space, and it’s time to break down the walls!

When: Thursday, March 13th at 5 pm PST

Where: Zoom

How: Register here

What: A workshop for people who have never been the leader of a backcountry tour or people who are looking to be more effective leaders in the backcountry.
