Hello,
I'm looking to attend an AIARE Avalanche Level 1 school in Colorado or New Mexico.

Does anyone know of a good course that is available?

I want to get my Level 1 before a Denali Expedition that I'm planning.

Cheers,
Steve

Hi Steve,

Keep and eye on this page:
http://www.nnmae.org/edu.html

When avalanche courses in New Mexico get scheduled, we'll have them listed there. Courses are typically held in Taos and Santa Fe.

For courses in Colorado, look here:
http://avalanche.state.co.us/Education/CAIC+Classes/

I can personally recommend the course at Silverton Avalanche School:
