I have nothing but amazing things to say about my Level I Avy class with Apex. All my instructors and especially Stew, who lead my group during the field sessions, were fantastic. I have come out of that class more confident, more motivated and most importantly more knowledgeable towards backcountry skiing.

I took the AIARE 1 course in December and it was a great course! The instructors made the course fun and provided great information and insight!! I would definitely recommend it!

I had such a great time learning how to rock climb. Our instructor Jesse was a great teacher and was always so encouraging!
Scott was amazing. Our two kids (ages 7 and 9) had an awesome time as did we. Felt super safe, great interaction with the kids, and incredibly professional - Scott was not some climber with a side gig, but a true, well-trained expert.
