If you're skiing in the backcountry you can never know too much about avalanches. And one of the best ways to learn about Avalanches is from people who have been dealing with them for decades. Experience is everything in the backcountry. On December 17-18 Snowbird will be offering the Freeride Avalanche Summit a two day clinic targeting advanced and expert skiers and riders who want practical and professional instruction on avalanche awareness, safety and rescue.
Participants include:
“With the increase in backcountry and sidecountry traffic, it’s more important than ever to offer tangible and affordable avalanche instruction to upper level skiers and riders,” said UAC Forecaster and Freeride Avalanche Summit founder Craig Gordon. “This Summit brings together an awesome group of leading forecasters along with some of the best winter athletes in Utah.”

I just heard about the Utah skiing and it sounds great. I like a little more personal and secluded though, like the Bachelor Gulch area near Vail/Beaver Creek. This place is a gem waiting to be discovered. The EastWest Resort there has some pretty amazing ski in ski out lodgings that are amazingly beautiful. Do yourself a favor and check this place out.
