Ski Mountaineering Courses

Mountaineering Courses at the Burnie Glacier Chalet

This winter, we are offering a new Intro to Ski Mountaineering Course. If you are a skier, but have not ventured into the wild mountains before, this is your chance to learn it all. Avalanche skills (AST course included), the art of uphill skiing, glacier travel, navigation … all at a somewhat slower pace than a guided trip.
