Avalanche

Eastern Division AVALANCHE offers three primary courses per season. Two annual LEVEL ONE  courses for rescuers and one LEVEL TWO course scheduled every two seasons make up the foundation of the program.  Every few years Division Avalanche Staff organizes a road-trip course out west in the Rockie Mountains.

Lodging and Accommodations:  Lodging is the responsibility of each individual Patroller.  Avalanche Courses at Patroller School do not offer arrangements; please make your own arrangements.  At Smuggler’s Notch and Whiteface, there is a large variety of choices found on the website of both resorts.  Students attending the Mt. Washington New Hampshire event will be directed to the “Town and Country Inn” located at the bottom of Mt. Washington in Shelburne NH.  More details about lodging at the Town and Country Inn will appear in your course confirmation receipt.
