Filled with fantastic views of the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California, you will get to admire the scenery from a number of great vantage points through the Bear Valley Ski Resort. Furthermore, this trip is about more than just fun, there is also an educational element as well. Over the course of 6 to 8 hours, you will learn a great deal about ski mountaineering.
A thrilling outdoor activity that combines ski touring and mountaineering, ski mountaineering is perfect for people who are adventurers at heart. However, like any physically demanding outdoor activity, especially those that involve mountains, it is important to learn the fundamentals.
A few examples of what you will learn, or review, during this clinic includes the use of skins, efficient track setting, techniques for uphill terrain, techniques for skiing on steeper terrain, and much more.
Participants on this trip must be able to ski or snowboard at an advanced level.
If you are looking to properly prepare yourself for future ski mountaineering expeditions, this clinic is for you. To join us for this full-day trip at the Bear Valley Ski Resort, please send a request.
We also offer another full-day ski mountaineering clinic on Mount Shasta.
