1 Day

Description

I have developed this 1-day Avalanche Training Workshop in Vogel. It is especially ideal for snowboarders and backcountry skiers.

Undoubtedly, it is really important to know how to recognize snow and terrains before the skiing time. That’s why I think this avalanche training will be very useful and practical.

The workshop will take place in the Vogel Resort. Here, there is a multi-burial simulation polygon that will help you to understand the real dynamics of avalanches.

We’ll dedicate the first part of the course to the following theoretical content:

Planning a ski trip
Snow conditions
Necessary equipment
Terrain reading
Safety protocols

In addition, I can also suggest other important items to learn, such as:

The use of crampons
Ice axe
Rope skills
Belaying techniques

The rest of the day will take place outdoors. Thus, you can put into practice the snow skills, stability rescues and avalanche training.

Moreover, I can adapt the course to your individual level. But take into account that snow is always changing and it’s often unstable. Therefore, I strongly recommend this course even for advanced skiers.

All you have to do it contacting me now. Please let me know your expectations and I will prepare a custom avalanche training workshop. I can guarantee this experience will improve your skiing performances no matter your technical level.

Mountain Guide

I grew up in Slovenia with Julian Alps as my backyard. Expeditions to Himalaya started when I was 17, started steep skiing at 15, climbing big walls at 13 and it was a natural progression to BASE jump and to become a mountain guide- a job that feeds my soul. I have been to several climbing expeditions to Peru, Kyrgyzstan, Tibet, Nepal and India.

I'm an IFMGA qualified mountain guide as well as an instructor for future guides, ski instructor, certified helicopter operator and a Heli Ski guide. Although my work took me all over the world my favorite place is still in the Julian Alps. Sharing the hidden places in my Home Mountains with my clients, guiding and teaching them to explore on their own is has been my biggest passion for the past few years.

Mountains are my passion. Winter or summer, climbing, flying through the air or skiing, it doesn't matter to me if I am guiding or having fun with friends. I simply get spaced out when I am in the mountains. Guiding for me is not a job - it is a state of mind and a lifestyle.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
