Capow! camps teach the fundamentals of moving respectfully through the mountains: your takeaway is the development of independent decision-making skills (can’t hold your hand forever, but will if you ask nicely). Each camp offers a different focus, so whether you want to go fast and pound vert or mellow it out and tell jokes on the skin track, there’s something for everybody.
The Capow! team of guides and professional skiers have all “been there” (read: sliding backwards down an up-track) and that empathy for the learning curve is the basis of our program. Our team will ensure that you will learn-as-you-go and do a whole bunch of skiing. By cutting the cool-guy attitude (see: Whistler/Blackcomb) Capow! aims to provide a place for like-minded people (read: chill skier friends). Our community vibe is built on the incredible people that ski with us, so round up your best buds or roll solo, and join in the fun. Leave with the understanding of how to make informed decisions in the backcountry, improved knowledge and confidence in complicated terrain, and a shit-eating grin on your face.
Our unofficial HQ is Blanket Glacier Chalet, the Schaffer family owned and operated backcountry arena located in the Monashees – an easy seven minute heli buzz from Revelstoke.
We've added our own flair to the nationally recognized Avalanche Skills Training (AST Level 1 and 2). Guides apply avalanche curriculum into complex terrain with small groups numbers for maximum learning.
