Instructional Backcountry Skiing & Boarding

Level 1 – Intro to Backcountry Skiing & Splitboarding : With unlimited potential for ski descents, the backcountry is where the heart of every true skier resides. The shift from resort skiing and boarding to the backcountry has taken off in recent years and our beginner backcountry ski and splitboard course will give you the foundational skills you need to get out of the lift lines.

Level 2 – Backcountry Freerider : Our goal over the course of this two-day camp is to take your backcountry riding to the next level.  Combining the pure backcountry experience with the opportunity to solidify the basics and develop more sophisticated techniques makes this program appropriate for those looking for 2 days of guided skiing and splitboarding.  This program is designed to refine your skill set allowing you the ability to venture deeper into the mountains.

Level 3 – Ultimate Steep & Deep Clinic: Yamnuska Mountain Adventures is pleased to partner with K2 Skis and Dynafit/Pomoca to present our Ultimate Canadian Rockies Steep & Deep Camp.  Over the course of three days we will choose venues that will be challenging and push your limits.  You will progress at a pace that works for your ability level without pushing you beyond your comfort zone.

Private Backcountry Skiing and Splitboard Guiding – Custom trips or instructional programs are tailored to your personal schedule and objectives. Appropriate for all levels: beginners to expert.
