Introduces patrollers to basic
fundamental MTR skills to include alpine travel and
orienteering, crevasse rescue, self arrest
techniques, rappelling, survival protection
(snow cave concepts) and general "alpine hutte"
etiquette. Additional curriculums are also
offered
for those wishing to advance their knowledge, skills
and understanding. Typically, students
completing the advanced curriculum return as
instructors for the basic course. This
program is also closely associated with the
Avalanche Education Program and, more often than
not, MTR is combined with Avalanche events to
offer the attendee the greatest "bang for the
buck". |
