Why take a course with us?
The guides were so welcoming and cultivated such a pressure-free and inclusive learning setting. It was a supportive environment while being a safe-space for leaning, asking questions, and working through obstacles.
- RACHEL
This is an amazing women owned and run organization, empowering women and nonbinary folks in the outdoors. I learned so much in my rec 1 course, in a supportive environment! Can't wait to be a part of more vntrbirds meet ups, clinics, and courses. I would highly recommend them for avalanche education!
- MAYLA
They cultivated an extremely encouraging and comfortable environment to learn in. I would absolutely recommend anyone take a course with them!
