Renaissance Adventure Guides is pleased to offer you the opportunity to increase your winter knowledge of snow conditions in the surrounding mountains. Feel safe about getting out into the winter wonderland of Colorado.

The second day of the clinic is in the field in Rocky Mountain National Park! For those of you doing the Avalanche Level 1 Certification, we will spend a second day in the field honing our skills, digging snow pits, and running mock rescues.
