They have a first class mountain flying course that I took a couple of years ago. You will need to get your private certificate before you can take that course. Insurance will probably keep you from flying without it after that. They lose something like two aircraft a week in the Rockies. I could not believe it when I heard that number from Howard McClure. He would know since he goes out looking for them.

It probably would be cheaper to buy it if you want a hard copy, it would smoke a home printer but you can download it and print it if you want.
