Description of Progression course with safety in the mountains 2 days

An experience tostart the winter journey, learning to progress with the appropriate material for each type of terrain and snow condition.We will be totally self-sufficient for two days, moving with backcountry skis, crampons and ice axes or snowshoes, depending on the terrain we are progressing through at all times. It is an outing to experience the winter mountains by applying different high mountain safety techniques.

Our tour will depart from the Lizara refuge towards the Los Sarrios Valley, using backcountry skis, crampons and ice axes or snowshoes, according to the terrain and the state of the snow, learning the different techniques to progress in the snow and applying the different safety techniques. In the Sarrios Valley we will practice bivouac (assembling tents, handling shovel and arva, but also how to build igloos or snow caves).

We will spend the night and the next day, we will continue the journey towards Ibón de Estanés and Aguas Tuertas. In this terrain we can apply different off-piste skiing techniques until the Selva de Oza.
