Vertfest 2011

Vertfest 2011 is coming up fast...Feb 12 and 13 at Alpental.  Yep - Vertfest has grown to a 2-day event!  Come join us for 2 days of clinics, demos, films and of course the biggest rando rally in the Northwest! It all begins on Saturday February 12th at Alpental with Ski Photography clinics with Grant Gunderson and Jason Hummel, sidecountry steeps clinics with guides from Pro Guide Service, and clinics one Advanced Beacon Skills and Snow Pack analysis with the Alpental Ski Patrol.

Once the fun is over on the mountain, come join us for the Backcountry Film Festival at the North Bend theater in the evening. There will be awesome gear raffles, a chance to check out the latest product showcased by our sponsors and time to enjoy a beer and food in our beer garden...and of course some great backcountry films!

Sunday the 13th is race day, so don't drink too much on Saturday at the film fest!

I can't find any details on the clinics themselves i.e. duration, topics covered, prerequisite knowledge, etc... I'm interested in the steep ski, photo clinic, and the advanced beacon clinic but want to make sure I'm not biting off more than I can chew as a skier who hasn't been into the backcountry yet. Thanks in advance.
