National Alpine School

This intensive alpine training event will provide Rover Scouts and Leaders with an opportunity to learn, develop, and demonstrate their skills in leading day and overnight ski tours and snowshoeing trips. The School is designed to focus on the practical skills that Snowcraft Leaders need to take youth members into snow, such as:

• Managing parties in challenging environments
• Dealing with alpine emergencies
• Navigating in poor visibility
• Avalanche safety
• Snow camping techniques
