Backcountry Basics "SHE CAN RIDE" clinics were created to provide a NON-INTIMIDATING instructional environment for WOMEN ONLY. Technical riding skills, rider safety, and avalanche awareness are taught on a private riding range. A key learning aspect is the classes are kept small and semi-private. The curriculum content was structured by veteran instructor Amber Holt and recognizes the physical and emotional differences needed throughout the learning experience for the female gender. Holt now offers Women’s and couples specific backcountry riding programs that focus on bringing more women confidently into the “sport and style” of western riding with the help of Arctic Cat and the snowmobile tourism industry.

Amber Holt is the the Owner and Master Instructor of Backcountry Basics. She has found instruction in all forms a very rewarding compliment to her life’s passions. Her instructional background began in her early teens as Professional Equine Trainer and then evolved into the Ski and Snowboard Industry as a Professional Coach and Instructor. At age 23 she joined her local Fire and EMS services where she proceeded to gain higher levels of training credentials as a result of working up ranks. During the summer months she is an motorcycle instructor for Idaho STAR, MSF, and Harley Davidson's Rider's Edge program.
In addition to these experiences and an immeasurable level of passion for backcountry snowmobiling, life’s lessons, a college education in the area of Aeronautical Science, Business and Marketing, Business Owner, and what she holds most grateful to is her amazing mentor, her Husband, Budd. These factor combined built the pillars and pedigree behind the foundation of what Backcountry Basics Snowmobile Clinics has become today.
From Amber's very first snowmobile ride with Budd in Alaska to the present, it has been a personal pursuit to develop and refine an educational means that would allow her to share with others that incredible experience and reward that backcountry riding has to offer. Her greatest enjoyment as an instructor comes from possessing the instructional skills and tools that can enable other riders to overcome their own personal apprehensions, fears and frustrations. These factors are often the paralyzing roadblocks to enjoying backcountry riding to its fullest. Amber finds it a great honored to assist in another rider’s break through moment when they confidently overcome these blockades and recognizes their endless capabilities!
