Then come snowboarding with NOLS! You’ll venture through the mountains on your split board, improve your snowboarding skills, and learn to be comfortable and happy outside in the winter.
In this snow-covered playground, you’ll learn to travel responsibly in avalanche terrain—an important skill for riders who want to venture out of ski areas into the untamed snowy wilderness.
The adventure starts with snowboarding instruction at Grand Targhee Resort. Once in the backcountry, you’ll construct elaborate snow shelters, learn about teamwork, and carve turns in fresh powder.
Camping and traveling in the winter is a lot of hard work, and surfing down the mountain in knee-deep powder is a very cool reward.
