Av Ed Series, The Basics - Know Before You Go w/Sierra Avalanche Center - 10/25 @ 6pm
Wednesday, October 25th
Join us at our first of three events and learn the basics of backcountry traveling.
This is a great intro to the season as we learn how to plan for a successful day in the mountains from our resident experts of Sierra Avalanche Center. You will learn the basics of how to become a backcountry skier/rider, as well as gear basics, education basics, continuing education, how to be a good partner.
This event will be outdoors at Alibi Truckee, so bring layers just in case! Doors open at 6 pm. Give yourself plenty of time to find a parking spot and grab beer and snacks before the formal presentation begins at 6:30 pm.
Bring cash for the huge raffle benefiting the Sierra Avalanche Center, Tahoe’s local avalanche forecasting center which provides a wealth of information to backcountry skiers, riders, and sledders. Their mission is to inform and educate the public about backcountry avalanche conditions in the greater Tahoe area. There will be tons of swag from our event sponsors: Black Diamond, Flylow Gear, Blizzard Skis, Tahoe Mountain School, Blackbird Mountain Guides, Outdoor Research, Rab, Spark R & D, and Mountainflow Ecowax.
