Their experience as professional skiers and guides coupled with their outgoing and perceptive personalities has resulted in top-notch customizable education and backcountry experiences. They offer a variety of guided ski tours in Utah including: Backcountry Mentorship Program, Ski Mountaineering Camp, guided yurt trips, sled-accessed touring and more. In part 2, we dive deep into opportunities to expand your backcountry skillset, discover new lines in the Wasatch, escape to remote zones in the Uintas, plan an epic yurt trip with your pals, and everything in between.<br><br>*Warning, reading this article will likely induce strong desires to get into the backcountry with Inspired Summit Adventures.<br><br>We should note that Inspired Summit Adventures is seeing unprecedented bookings this season compared to years past. If you&#8217;re thinking about one of their guided ski tours in Utah, we recommend signing up sooner than later!

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first interview<\/a>, we know you both have impressive resumes when it comes to the backcountry and spend A TON of time exploring the Uinta Mountains. How does this experience play into ISA\u2019s Backcountry Mentorship Program? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shaun: We both have been teaching the AIARE curriculum for a long time. Through this, we are able to share the Uintas with our students and watch the lightbulb go off in them. When students are expressing things like, \u201cI wouldn\u2019t feel comfortable coming out here in this kind of terrain. There\u2019s nobody around. Like what do you do?\u201d So we thought, let\u2019s create this program that caters <em>exactly<\/em> to your learning objectives and outcomes. The idea (of the Backcountry Mentorship Program) grew out of this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes\" class=\"wp-image-3909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-1064x798.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_classes-1438x1079.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Shaun and Weston have both taught AIARE curriculum for a long time.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Weston: While it might have started like that, now the Backcountry Mentorship Program has evolved to bridge the gaps in formalized avalanche education. An Avalanche 1 shouldn\u2019t serve as a stand-alone, but rather as part of a whole progression. Also, it seems like many other Avy 1 classes have become people\u2019s introduction to the backcountry. You really shouldn\u2019t take an avalanche class without at least putting your skins on or learning how to get into your tech bindings. While we have many folks wanting to gain some experience before taking their first Avalanche 1, we also have folks wanting to go from a recreational backcountry background into the professional realm. Whatever it may be, with this program you get personalized education and mentorship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: The curriculum in standardized avalanche education is amazing but I do think those classes are limited by the fact that there can be around 21 students for 3 instructors. And you have to default to the lowest common denominator. We have a 3 to 1 ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course\" class=\"wp-image-3923\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-1064x798.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_avalanche_course-1438x1079.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Weston helping a private group fine tune their snow pit skills.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V: Many of us Utahns have been spoiled by learning to backcountry tour in the Central Wasatch with top-notch forecasting, oodles of observations, a GSP backcountry ski map, and reliable service in most zones. For folks looking to step out of their backyard comfort zone, how does the mentorship program help?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>W: There\u2019s a great community and a lot of mentors in the Wasatch. To be honest, while the Wasatch is great, we see a lot of bad practice out there. And learning the right way is important. As our good friend J.T. Robinson says, \u201cHave a mentor, be a mentor, and continue to learn.\u201d<br><br>W: Plus formalized education is easier to digest. When you learn in the Wasatch with friends, a social group, or in college it can be fairly easy. But to people who just came into town it\u2019s like, \u201cOh my god. This is so intimidating. How do I get into the backcountry?\u201d And we can help them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains\" class=\"wp-image-3908\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-1064x798.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_uinta_mountains-1438x1079.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Applying and developing backcountry skills in unfamiliar terrain. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>S: It\u2019s unlimited in its flexibility. I realized as I was teaching a lot of certified avalanche courses,&nbsp; a lot of people don\u2019t know basic map reading skills. Even if you are using <a href=\"https:\/\/caltopo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Caltopo<\/a>, if you don\u2019t know how to take the satellite and then look at a topo map and make sense of the two, you can really get yourself hosed. So in the mentorship program, we will take maps and work on in-depth or basic map skills to make sure you have that skill in addition to the avalanche component, terrain management, survival skills, etc. We can dive into a little bit of the medical side but that\u2019s not our forte. However, we can link people up to the right medical programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills\" class=\"wp-image-3920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-1064x798.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_map_skills-1438x1079.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Shaun explains backcountry mapping skills.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>W: Ready for my cornball moment? The mentorship program is like the bridge to anywhere.

That should be on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V: With the customization, are there prerequisites for the mentorship course? <\/strong><br><strong><br><\/strong>W: No, that\u2019s one of the beautiful things about it! There are no prerecs. So many times in life there are prereqs and this is like, show up as you are and we will teach you what you want and need to know.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: The biggest thing in all of our programs is we really ask our clients and participants to come ready to learn and share with us what you want to get out of it. Come having an idea, let us meet you there and show you a whole expansive view beyond that as well.<br><br>W: Our guides love it too! We have guides who ski, tele, splitboard; a bunch of women, a bunch of guys. We can set you up with whoever. Because everything is so customizable, you can have the same guide or we can switch and swap and you get different perspectives.

You guys have more similarities than differences in that realm and know what to expect from each other.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: Multiple people can sign up but as long as they are privately booked (together) so you know who is in your group and you all have decided to go through this experience together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V: Plus, then participants are getting all of the attention instead of having to split it up between the group, which is a huge benefit! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-1024x680.png\" alt=\"guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp\" class=\"wp-image-3880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-1024x680.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-768x510.png 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-100x66.png 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp-1064x707.png 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_ski_camp.png 1233w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Smaller groups size can allow for bigger terrain options. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V: In the Backcountry Mentorship Program, what\u2019s the balance between reading snow stability, route finding, rescue skills, backcountry decision making, etc.? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>W: We hate to abuse this word, but it\u2019s totally customized.

Personally in my guidebook, I\u2019ll write down those goals and make sure we hit all of them. Then at the end, (of the three mentorship days) we can go back and see if there\u2019s anything missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: And it\u2019s cool because the mentorship program is three days and you get to choose whether you want them consecutively or whether you want to break them up throughout the season. We\u2019ve even had people sign up for an entire season of mentorship, so a double mentorship, where they did six days with us throughout the entire season. They wanted to eventually take their Avalanche Level 1 but they wanted to understand a lot more before going into that course. So we were able to follow the season\u2019s snowpack from the start all the way to the end while also covering a lot of terrain management and on-the-go snow observations which was really cool!<br><br>S: Then we\u2019ve also had people use us like a steep skiing camp. They wanted to figure out how to safely get into steeper, more committing terrain in the backcountry. They\u2019d been backcountry users for a long time and they just wanted to feel comfortable when, why, and where to go to get some steep skiing in the backcountry. Those are two custom approaches to the mentorship program that are definitely pretty different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-1064x798.jpg 1064w, https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/guided_ski_tours_in_utah_steep_skiing-1438x1079.jpg 1438w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>You can use the Backcountry Mentorship Program as a &#8220;steep skiing camp.&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>V: Are there less-obvious perks to the Mentorship program people probably wouldn&#8217;t think of?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: Access to your guide.

Hey, can I follow you today, you know, as buddies?\u201d This is a professional business and we ask that you respect our knowledge and craft.

We\u2019d love to have you out and continue to grow those relationships!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>S: Plus Weston and I are a part of that guide team too and have that experience as well.

From NY to Colorado to now Utah, she has spent over a decade chasing her dreams. Shaun&rsquo;s passion for skiing is what has been the engine behind her actions. First as a big mountain competitive skier, then sponsored pro, to now avalanche educator, guide, and business owner. It is even how she and her husband, Weston D met. Now living in Park City with their two dogs and daughter, Shaun continues to pursue her dreams whether as a big mountain skier, web series co-creator, AIARE avalanche instructor, backcountry and cat ski guide or owner of a wellness guiding company, Inspired Summit Adventures. She began this journey with nothing more than a dream of becoming a professional skier not sure where it would lead, but today finds herself humbly sitting amongst many of her heroes living the dream.&nbsp;<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-section e572-e15 mfw-0\"><div class=\"x-container marginless-columns e572-e16 mfw-1\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-1 e572-e17 mfw-2\"><hr class=\"x-line e572-e18 mfw-c\"><\/hr><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"cs-content x-global-block x-global-block-570 e570-e0\"><div class=\"x-section e570-e1 mfu-0\"><div class=\"x-container marginless-columns e570-e2 mfu-1\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-4 e570-e3 mfu-2 mfu-3\"><span class=\"x-image e570-e4 mfu-4\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Weston_Deutschlander_300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Image\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-3-4 e570-e5 mfu-2\"><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e6 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-7\"><p>Weston Deutschlander<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e7 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Location:<\/strong> Park City, UT<\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e8 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Top Gear Picks:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-v8-skis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">V8 193cm<\/a> \/&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.voile.com\/voile-supercharger-skis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SuperCharger 185cm<\/a><\/p><\/div><hr class=\"x-line e570-e9 mfu-b\"><\/hr><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e10 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Website:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.InspiredSummit.com\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.InspiredSummit.com<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e11 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Instagram:<\/strong> <a  target=\"blank\" href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/thewestond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@thewestond<\/a>&nbsp;\/&nbsp;<a  target=\"blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspiredsummitadventures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@inspiredsummitadventures<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e12 mfu-5 mfu-6 mfu-8 mfu-9\"><p><strong>Facebook Business Page:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/InspiredSummitAdventures\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Inspired Summit Adventures<\/a><\/p><\/div><hr class=\"x-line e570-e13 mfu-c\"><\/hr><div class=\"x-text x-content e570-e14 mfu-5 mfu-8 mfu-a\"><p>Weston is one of the smarter New Yorker's and fled the state as soon as he could.
