Backcounty Ascender - Have fun while while improving your backcountry and avalanche knowledge.

Learn compete, win and improve! Backcountry Ascender is a free, fun and simple backcountry and avalanche education tool. Work through missions that contain sorties. A sortie is a short lesson that requires evidence to complete. An industry leader or senior peer will review and approve the sortie, granting you points. Once you complete all the sorties in the mission, you are awarded a badge for that mission level. There are 5 mission levels this season. You can also earn big prizes for being the first to achieve a mission level. Go to the Backcountry Ascender site to start here.
