🌞 Bluebird days and great conditions up at Rex Simpson Hut for the recent NZMGA Ski Guides Training Course in the Two Thumb Range! ❄️⛷️
Candidates made the most of the stable snowpack and clear skies to sharpen their skills in ski guiding, mountain rescue, and decision making in avalanche terrain.
We’re proud to support the NZMGA and play a small part in helping foster the next generation of mountain & ski guides.
💪 A huge amount of training, dedication and passion goes into earning a guiding qualification – it’s no small feat!
