点评:Took the AIARE 1 three-day class with CMS and learned so much. Great balance of classroom and field time. There was 1 guide/6 people which was a great ratio. The four guides were all extremely knowledgeable, open to answer any questions, and happy to give suggestions for gear and future adventures. They were also fun!
My group went out with Sarah on the first field day. Sarah did a great job at making sure we practiced all the rescue skills in the curriculum while adjusting the pace of the class to keep us warm on a truly freezing day. Sarah checked in with us often to make sure we were comfortable and still had all our toes.
My group went out with Matt on the second day. Matt not only taught us more rescue and avalanche skills but also gave us pointers for efficient backcountry travel/skinning. He dropped in anecdotes throughout the class to give real life, tangible examples.
I truly could not recommend this class at CMS more. Or even hiring Sarah or Matt (or Kyle or Chris!) as a personal guide. I feel like I have a solid foundation to keep myself safe this season and have the tools to continue my education.
翻译:参加了 CMS 的 AIARE 1 为期三天的课程,学到了很多东西。课堂和野外时间的完美平衡。有 1 名导游/6 人,这是一个很好的比例。这四位向导都知识渊博,乐于回答任何问题,并乐于就装备和未来的冒险提出建议。他们也很有趣!
我的小组在第一个实地考察日和莎拉一起出去玩。莎拉在确保我们练习课程中的所有救援技能方面做得很好,同时调整了课堂节奏,让我们在真正寒冷的日子里保持温暖。莎拉经常和我们一起检查,以确保我们感到舒适并且脚趾仍然健康。
第二天,我的小组和马特出去了。 Matt 不仅教会了我们更多救援和雪崩技能,还为我们提供了高效野外旅行/剥皮的指导。他在课堂上不断地讲轶事,以提供真实的、有形的例子。
我真的不能再推荐 CMS 的这门课了。或者甚至聘请 Sarah 或 Matt(或 Kyle 或 Chris!)作为个人向导。我觉得我有一个坚实的基础来保证这个赛季的安全,并有继续我的教育的工具。
