AIARE Avalanche Rescue Course in Truckee

This is a one day, stand alone course that is intended to be retaken on a regular basis in order to keep abreast of best practices in rescue techniques and gear. New participants will learn the basics of companion rescue, while return participants will expand their skill set with advanced topics and realistic scenario practice to help improve their skills after the course. Everyone will have the opportunity to receive professional coaching on their rescue skills and will also receive a “RESCUE CARD” which acknowledges the completion of this refresher. This day is a pre-req for the AIARE Rec 2 and the AIARE Pro 1. AIARE and NASTC recommend that all backcountry travelers keep their skills sharp and current by taking this 1-day course at least every other year.
