just trying to spread the word - an online zoom class that gets you creating routes and evaluating the terrain, instead of watching someone else do it on a webinar.

Have you done this yourself? Just wondering if you'd advise waiting until after a formal in-person class to take this or if it's beneficial before as well. Got a class coming up early February and would like to take this course as well, but will hold off on this if it'll be more effective after my class.

I teach the classes - if you have some backcountry experience and savvy on maps, the class will skyrocket your ability to understand the content of your rec class. What I am teaching is designed to supplement what is being taught in the rec 1 & 2's. Overall, I have noticed the best results from students who take it soon after their rec class.
