Alpine Rescue Team members will be present to answer your questions.
We may not have all the answers but we will do our best to give you our “professional” input from many years of performing searches and rescue—and backcountry travel, etc. This is also a great time to share experiences, learn from other folks and broaden levels of knowledge.
Skills for the Hills is Alpine Rescue Team's public wilderness and backcountry education program. Our classes are free, however we appreciate donations at the door. We never charge you, your family or the local authorities for search and rescue.
Support Alpine Rescue Team and all Colorado SAR teams by purchasing a Colorado Outdoor Recreation Search and Rescue (CORSAR) Card. Buy a five-year ($12) or one-year ($3) card online.
