OUR FOCUS

We began in 1997 with an idea to create an affordable top-tier backcountry course for snowboarders amongst the "greatest snow on earth", the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. We believe a course, and an adventure should not only teach you the skills needed to recreate safely but also provide a learning opportunity to maximize the experience. We're much more than a guiding operation, an avalanche class or travel company - we are the ones you call to reach your highest goals and achievements through adventure. 

 

OUR HISTORY 

It's been a long course from where we started with the first snowboarder avalanche school at Brighton, Utah in 1997. Over the years, we've curated backcountry programs with various private/public organizations, enhanced our skills building courses Backcountry Essentials & Expanding Horizons and traveled far and away to mountain and coastal regions. 3 decades of adventures have shaped our programs to be one of the best option out there.

 

OUR PRESENT

With all we do at UAU, we pride ourselves on providing a personal approach for your course progression and adventure(s). With our free virtual consultation (discovery call), we listen to your personal needs and goals, then guide you into program or trip most beneficial for you, your group or family. Whatever your adventure level, we have a course or adventure for you.
