点评:I've been skiing UT for 47 years but never did the backcountry. Was referred to Inspiration from my rental touring gear provider, White Pines, for which I'll be eternally grateful. Had been reading up re: avalanches (Bruce Tremper) and requested a woman guide to see the mountains (and risks) from their less testosteroned eyes. Events are oftentimes fatal. I chose the Human Powered option. Was set up with Sam Katz and it was a perfect match! She's a general overall badass with no ego, patience of a saint, and she provided exactly what I was looking for: as much avalanche training as the day could provide (starting with a review of the multiple online data sources in their offices), options of various flavors for our lines, invaluable tips on skinning, connected conversation, some great photos/video, and a simply glorious entry into the world of winter backcountry. Am hoping to come back next year and take an AIARE course through Inspired (and hopefully with Sam!). Also had a great online and eventual phone chat with Cindi, who was super helpful. Cannot endorse the overall experience, Inspired, and Sam more fully!
翻译:我已经在 UT 滑雪 47 年了,但从未去过偏远地区。从我的旅行装备租赁供应商 White Pines 那里得到灵感,对此我将永远感激不已。一直在阅读 re: avalanches(Bruce Tremper),并请一位女导游从她们睾丸素较少的眼睛看山(和风险)。事件往往是致命的。我选择了人力选项。与 Sam Katz 一起成立,这是一场完美的比赛!她是一个没有自我的坏蛋,圣人般的耐心,她提供了我正在寻找的东西:尽可能多的雪崩训练(从审查他们办公室的多个在线数据源开始),选项我们系列的各种口味、宝贵的剥皮技巧、相互联系的对话、一些很棒的照片/视频,以及进入冬季偏远地区世界的简单光荣之旅。我希望明年能回来并通过 Inspired 参加 AIARE 课程(并希望与 Sam 一起学习!)。还与超级乐于助人的 Cindi 进行了很棒的在线和最终电话聊天。不能更全面地认可整体体验,Inspired和Sam!
