emPOWDERed is proud to partner with some of the best instructors in Alaska, bringing safe, trusted, and high-quality backcountry education to our community. This year, we’re requiring all participants to hold an
Alaska Safe Riders Basic Membership—just $25 per year—to help support vital safety programs that keep Alaskans informed and protected in the outdoors. Membership options are available for everyone: families (up to 6 members) can join for $50 annually, schools can be recognized as a member for $100 a year, and businesses can show their support for $500 a year. Being a registered member not only supports these programs, it also protects us as your instructors during group rides. Proof of membership will be required to attend all official emPOWDERed rides. Every membership directly funds programs that promote safe riding, responsible exploration, and lifelong skills for Alaska.
We also ask that you complete our Stay Connected Form so we can keep you up to date on upcoming events, trainings, and other opportunities to engage with our community. While event registration will be handled through Alaska Safe Riders, details and highlights will always be showcased here on our website to help share information, celebrate our riders, and keep our network connected.
