Thanks for booking with us!
We look forward to having you in our Advanced Avalanche Training course. In the meantime we have a bit of homework for you so we can hit the ground running on the field day.
THE PROCESS
Step 1: The Waiver
Outdoor activities involve numerous hazards including, but not limited to, avalanches, slips and falls, equipment failure, poor weather, etc. And while we do our best to anticipate and mitigate these hazards we cannot completely eliminate them. So, as with anything fun, you will be required to sign our Participant Release to take part in the course. So, hit the link below and review, sign and submit the waiver. Once done come back here to complete the rest of the steps.
Step 2: The Online Course
In preparation for your course feel free to go through this online materials that acts as a bit of an AST refresher. It can be accessed by clicking on the button and following the below instructions:
- Click on “Buy $85.00”
- Enter your information
- At checkout click on “Have a coupon”
- Use Promo Code: Blacksheep2425
- That will bring the cost to $0 and you’re good to go
Step 3: Gear List
Be sure to read over the gear list in advance of the trip so that you have time to grab anything you might need. We have Avy Kits for sale at a great price and rentals if you’re not ready to buy. If you requested one when you enrolled in the course your instructor will bring it to the meeting point for you. If you would like to add one to your order just email us at booking@blacksheepadventure.ca
Step 4: Lift Ticket
If you do not have a season’s pass you can purchase a backcountry lift ticket here. Backcountry tickets must be purchased in advance and are available up to 48 hours from the start of your course.
If you don’t purchase a pass from us at least 48h in advance, you’ll be responsible for purchasing one from Whistler Resort directly.
