TESTIMONIALS
Adam B., Denver
"I have taken a few guided splitboard tours with Justin Ibarra and I was thoroughly impressed with his knowledge of the backcountry terrain, safety and splitboarding techniques. He is a true professional and I would highly recommend his guiding services."
Jake L., Portland
"The Intro to Splitboarding course with Justin was tailored to my needs as a new splitboarder. I learned new techniques and knowledge that I look forward to using when I get my Avy 1 certification this season. I highly recommend this course to anyone who's new to the backcountry."
Bonny V., Wheatridge
"I signed up for their advanced splitboard hut trip. The trip was such a great experience! We learned compass and map navigation, how to build an emergency snow pit, beacon searches with multiple burials, trip planning, skinning techniques, on snow safety and route decisions. It was based in an awesome backcountry hut!
