Ski touring is great, but there’s a lot to know before you go. So whether you’re looking to go on your first ski tour, you want to sign up for an avalanche-safety course, or you want to skin uphill at your local resort, this video is for you.
We cover all the basic types of gear you need to begin skinning uphill and skiing back down, from skis, splitboards, boots, & bindings, to avalanche safety gear, backpacks, poles, accessories, & more.

Great video, except that you keep saying AIARE , when you mean “avalanche education course”. AIARE is one of the companies providing avalanche education in the US, but there are others too.
American Avalanche Association (A3) sets the course requirements and structure in the US.
So, go to THEIR website to find a course near you, which may or may not be one provided by AIARE.

Thanks for the reminder — I just updated the links.
Great job and very useful info provided in a concise way. Your getting very good at this, maybe time to move on to full length documentaries….. Can you speak in a voice like Leonard Nimoy?
Ha, thanks! Will have to work on the documentary voice…
