Avalanche talks, field courses, and the backcountry community.
Daily in winter · avalanche advisory for the Provo-area mountains
Provo Area Mountains zone (Timpanogos / American Fork / Provo peaks)
The UAC issues a daily winter avalanche advisory for a dedicated Provo Area Mountains zone — essential reading before any backcountry day on Timpanogos or in American Fork Canyon.
Several times a week in winter · free 1-hour avalanche awareness talks
Rotating Utah venues (see UAC classes page)
Free one-hour beginner awareness talks held many times a week around the state in winter, plus paid on-snow classes. Dates and locations rotate — check the classes page for a Utah County session.
Year-round · public backcountry access via annual certificate
American Fork Canyon (Miller Hill area)
A Utah County nonprofit preserving public backcountry access in American Fork Canyon; it owns a parcel near the top of Miller Hill and sells the public annual access certificates. Not a guided program — for self-sufficient, avalanche-aware skiers.
