Apply To Be A Mentee.

In order to be a mentee you must:

  • Own your own backcountry touring gear - touring skis or split board, skins, beacon, probe, shovel and appropriate outerwear. Applicants with AST 1 courses will be given preference but is not a requirement.

  • Must be able to commit to at least one mentorship session per month for the duration of the season. 

  • Must have three realistic and tangible goals for what they would like to achieve over the season.

Some additional important information:

  • Each mentor and mentee is insured through the Federation of Mountain Clubs of BC and you will be required to sign a waiver.

  • There will be a cost of $75 associated with being a mentee in the program. This cost covers insurance for both you and your mentor for the season as well as an admin fee. If you are in a financially unstable place and cannot cover this cost, please continue with the application and reach out to us. We will be offering a few spaces per season free of charge on a case-by-case basis.

  • We expect mentees to be pro-active about contacting their mentor and setting up mentorship sessions at the mentor's convenience. Please remember that mentors volunteer their valuable time to give back and share knowledge - it is important to respect her time.

  • Please give us as much information about yourself in the application as possible. This will help us to find the best match for our mentors.
