 Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm going on an off-piste course for a long weekend in Feb.
Not done it before so am hesitant to get all the gear if this proves to be a one-off.
Anyone know if a transceiver/probe/shovel can be hired (or borrowed) in the UK?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Why not hire in resort?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Could do - but not too keen on getting there and finding nothing available?

Is nothing offered as part of the course?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Possibly - but I'm just seeing if there are options?

@Ray Zorro, If you post the resort/location you will probably get better suggestions. Most mountain guide offices will provide, or recommend locations for rental equipment.

@Ray Zorro, most course providers also give you the kit as part of the course fee.
Try asking them.

The course you are going on will rent you everything you need from touring skis, skins, abs bags, poles, transceivers, shovels and probes. I did it last year in Val the only thing i paid for was the ski and pole hire. Although i just had a rucksack not an abs bag.

Thanks for help and advice everyone. A friend has offered to lend me her kit, so I'm sorted for now.
