The goal of an avalanche course is simple: to give the students tools for making good decisions in avalanche terrain. We achieve that goal by addressing the whole picture: weather, snow, terrain, and the human beings who choose to travel there. Our goal is to send you home eager to learn more,  with a good idea of how to gain experience safely.  I teach Level 1 and Level 2 courses at Snoqualmie Pass with Pro Guiding Service, using curriculum developed by the American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education (AIARE).
