AST 2 is the next step if you have taken your AST 1 and have gained some experience in the backcountry. The AST 2 curriculum is built around the daily process, which emulates the same approach used by professionals.

Key techniques for applying the Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale to develop your own terrain ratings.

Decision making skills to manage avalanche risk.
A deeper theoretical understanding of avalanche terrain and snowpack.

A self-paced online avalanche tutorial reviewing concepts learned in AST 1 will precede a 3 to 4 hour online classroom session on Friday evening that will cover some additional review work and a deeper dive into trip planning with a look at more advanced weather and avalanche resources. Two full weekends will be spent in the field expanding on managing avalanche terrain with an emphasis on having students taking the lead, practicing more complex companion rescue scenarios, examining weather factors, and an introduction to snow stability tests.
A maximum of 6 students per course ensures an intimate and interactive learning experience.
Course cost: $790 (admin fees included) + GST per student ($765 + GST for PMSC members).
Course dates: February 13 (evening class), 14, 15, 21, 22 (field days), 2026
