We need a couple more people to show interest in the class. When this happens, the instructor will begin putting together the class details.
Thanks!
Who is the instructor? What curriculum will be taught in the class? Will the class meet AAA Level 1 requirements? Where will the class be taught?
Hello Mike! I did Level 1 at Slide Snow School a couple of seasons ago. How are you guys?
Good questions. Keith Gale is an instructor with the National Ski Patrol and he offered to put together a course for our group. From what I found on the NSP site, their Level 1 does meet the AAA requirements. This class will be a 28 hour class with 2/3 of it being taught in the field. Keith is currently working on the logistics of the course.
I hope things are going well up at Mount Rose.
The Level 1 class has been posted. 3 classroom nights in Reno and two field days. Cost is $191. You can find the details and sign up here:
