We signed up for a 3-day Avalanche course here in Klosters together with ex-SBX rider Sandra Frei and 3 others. It’s important to be aware of the dangers of the backcountry. In these 3 days we learned new routs in the region and how to make our own, walking on snowshoes, reading and interpreting the avalanche warnings, riding in groups and avalanche rescue. The first 2 days it was beautiful and warm weather after a great snowfall. We walked a lot and found some great steep powder!
The 3rd day it was snowing and the visibility was poor so we spent a lot of time practicing rescue methods but finished the day with a great powder run all the way down to Davos. We would encourage everyone who likes powder riding to take such a course. You learn a lot and find more powder☺. For all the Dutchies check out: www.snowsafety.nl
