Avalanche education is a standing commitment here, not a disclaimer. In partnership with Soul Rides, we offer motorized-specific avalanche training taught in the terrain you actually ride.

WHICH COURSE

AST 1 IS THE
STARTING LINE

AST stands for Avalanche Skills Training — the Canadian standard. Level 1 is two days and teaches you to recognise avalanche terrain, read the daily forecast, and run a companion rescue.

Motorized AST covers the same curriculum on a sled, because a sled changes how fast you enter terrain and how far you travel from help.

Level 01

2 days

MOTORIZED AST 1

Online theory plus two field days on sleds. Terrain recognition, trip planning, transceiver search, and companion rescue under load.

Runs Dec – Mar

Level 02

4 days

AST 2

For riders already making their own calls. Snowpack assessment, route-finding in complex terrain, and group decision-making.

AST 1 required
