Trip: AIARE Hut Based Avy 1 Course
Guide: Tico G., Chris T.
Both Tico and Chris did an excellent job matching tools with the field experience. These guys are definitely in their element when in the field and able to help guests process information about risks, tests, and observations to adapt the back country journey.

Trip: AIARE Avy 1 Course
Guide: Bruce S., Erin L.
This trip exceeded my expectations..... the learning was very hands-on but also included much touring to learn real-life observations to couple the classroom learning. I will be suggesting the AIARE I to anyone/everyone i know with Backcountry intentions and specifically San Juan Expeditions in Silverton. Thank you Erin and Bruce for a very great and memorable weekend!

Trip: AIARE Avy 1 Course
Guide: Kam W., Bruce S.
Kam, Bruce, and Jake were incredible instructors and created a safe and welcoming learning environment. We got some great time on snow and had a lot of fun while we learned how to be safer in the backcountry. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to take an AIARE course.
