One of our trip planners, Kassi, is taking avalanche training courses in nearby Bozeman, Montana. Offered by the America Avalanche Institute, the course takes students from the classroom outside, into backcountry and in avalanche terrain. An outdoor nut (and I use "nut" with the utmost respect) with an addiction for snow -- better yet, a snow-and-skis combination -- Kassi will be putting her training to use.
Adventure Life supplies our full-time employees with funding for continuing education opportunities. In the past, staff members have taken advantage of this perk to pursue interests as varied as our personalities. This includes Spanish classes, web development, kayaking lessons, Latin America economy courses, accounting, SCUBA ... and now avalanche education.
Having the ability to determine snow stability is key to staying safe while exploring the backcountry and knowledge is power... Or in other words respect the snow! Have fun, Kassi. Smart girl.

The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!

(1) great information on the website and throughout all the "materials." (2) Jane Packer is great: knowledgeable, responsive, takes a personal interest and tone, seems to care about the customer as a person not a sale.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.
