"Beacon Bash was created as a way to promote early-season practice with beacon searches and to support the Friends of CAIC. Beacon Bash promotes and prioritizes safety within the backcountry skiing and split-boarding community. They are dedicated to educating and empowering outdoor enthusiasts with the knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to make informed decisions and mitigate risks while exploring the pristine wilderness. Through interactive workshops, hands-on training, and expert guidance, they aim to foster a culture of responsibility, preparedness, and camaraderie among backcountry adventurers. Their ultimate goal is to ensure that every participant returns home safely, while preserving the pristine beauty of our backcountry playgrounds for generations to come."

Please join us for a fun-filled day of information, backcountry equipment drills and practice, and community, while raising money for Friends of CAIC!
