How to Join

Come ski with Diamond Peaks Ski Patrol, Cameron Pass, Colorado
We are looking for enthusiastic and safety-conscious backcountry skiers to join in the patrol. We patrol in the Cameron Pass area. If you love to be outdoors in the winter, this is great opportunity to ski as well as volunteer.

All National Ski Patrol patrollers must complete the Outdoor Emergency Care (OEC) class. The OEC curriculum covers principles and skills similar to the Emergency Medical Technician program but is focused on the first aid care of injured or sick backcountry enthusiast in a cold environment.

Hiking at the Diamond with Diamond Peaks Ski Patrol
Diamond Peaks Ski Patrolers complete several classes including OEC, CPR for the Professional Rescuer, DPSP Backcountry Transport Training, Avalanche Level I and Mountain Travel Rescue I. Diamond Peaks Ski Patrol offers these courses throughout the ski season to candidate patrollers.
​
Becoming a patroller costs approximately $400 for course fees, books, membership dues and a first aid kit. In addition each patroller is expected to own good quality snow travel equipment, sufficient outdoor gear to spend a night in mountain winter conditions and an avalanche transceiver. The benefits of patrolling with Diamond Peaks Ski Patrol include skiing with others in some of Colorado’s finest powder while performing an important public service.
