VNTRbirds Snow Safety with Arc’teryx
December 13, 2023 @ 7:00 am - 8:30 pm
Join VNTRbirds and Arc’teryx RiNo for a kickoff to the winter backcountry season! Whether you are backcountry curious, a seasoned traveler, or somewhere in between, come out to the Arc’teryx store in Denver on Wednesday, December 13th and get stoked for the upcoming season. This is great for novice backcountry explorers or a refresher before you dust off your backcountry gear and head out for your first tour of the season. This is a free event but you must RSVP because space is limited.
No need to bring in your equipment, we have you covered. Sit back and soak up the information over a beverage. Beer, water and appetizers will be provided.
What will you learn?:
– Touring equipment + rescue equipment needed for backcountry exploration
– How to Dress + What’s in our pack
– What you need before you go
– How transceivers work
– What to expect during your avalanche courses
– Reading the avalanche forecast
This is a women specific workshop. We welcome femme, transgender and gender non-conforming people who are comfortable in femme-centered spaces.
