Avalanche Awareness Beyond the Boundaries (AABBS) is a non-profit society formed to provide free Avalanche Skills Training to youth between the ages of 12 to 18 in the Kootenay area. Our aim is to raise awareness and educate youth in decision making about backcountry travel and avalanche safety by providing age appropriate courses in the West Kootenay region.

Thanks to the generosity of the many donors supporting the effort, the AABBS provided free Canadian Avalanche Association (CAA) approved Avalanche Skills Training (AST) courses to approximately 250 Nelson and Rossland area youth between the ages of 12 to 18 since 2009.
