Women’s Backcountry Touring Camp

Come join us for a 2 day skills course, formulated for women, by women. Our focus will be to help you gain confidence to split board and ski beyond the resorts and gain knowledge of winter backcountry travel, route finding, safety skills, and trip planning- all in a supportive, fun and encouraging environment led by our professional female guides.

Ultimate Early Season Camps

These tours are designed for strong intermediate skiers and boarders who would like to learn more about avalanche safety and backcountry travel. The Niseko area receives more snow in December than most resorts do all season and the night skiing at this time is outrageous! Early season pricing and less crowds make this a winner!
