Women's Ski/Splitboard Mountaineering (Weekend)


  • Tracks of Her Own - Backcountry Guides Mammoth Lakes, CA USA (map)

This 2 Day Course is a comprehensive, hands-on progression designed to build confidence, awareness, and flow in big terrain.

It’s about mastering the how, when, and where of movement in steep, complex mountain terrain — and then applying those skills in real time, in a supportive environment, under the guidance of a professional female guide, and with other capable women.

Day 1: We learn the skills in benign terrain: self arrest, walking in crampons, when, where and how to set the bootpack, skiing and riding with an ice axe, skiing and riding in steep terrain, and more.

Day 2:We’re going on a tour and getting into terrain, but by way of an approachable progression. We’ll gradually increase steepness and exposure, and practice our skillset in real ski/splitboard mountaineering terrain.
