“An incredible environment and community for back country skiers and split boarders of all levels and backgrounds. I participated in their BIPOC ski touring clinic and was surrounded by supportive people while I downhill skied for the first time in many years and first time ski touring along with many others learning as adults! Zach, Mardi, and all the people at IST are amazing and making a difference to make the outdoors more accessible for all. Thank you!!”

“As a novice, it was reassuring to have someone explain the equipment use, set up and safe handling. It made it possible to access the snow without as much fear or worry.”
