Why We Started

The Mountain Training Center (MTC) was started during the winter of 21/22 after noticing students struggling to retain information during lengthy zoom-based lectures. At around an hour and a half in, students were either dozing off or no longer engaging. So instead of a single live lecture, we decided to create online products that students could watch at their own pace and come back to throughout the season.

What We Offer

We host an extensive library of courses for mountain sports ranging from backcountry mapping to avalanche forecasting to recreational rock rescue - all taught by professional mountain guides. Additionally, we offer training plans for all mountain sports including backcountry skiing, splitboarding, big mountain freeride, ice climbing, rock climbing, and trail running.
