Back Country Avalanche Skills

Washington wilderness areas can be spectacularly beautiful, but they can also be deadly if you fail to respect their dangers. Avalanches can happen almost anytime and anywhere there is snow. This course is for snowshoers, back country skiers, glacier climbers, or others who might venture out onto open snow slopes in the winter or springtime. You will learn how to evaluate avalanche hazards, how to select the safest routes, and what to do if you, or someone with you, are caught in an avalanche. The full day session, conducted in the Washington Cascades, will include hands-on practice in route navigation, snow pack stability analysis, and transceiver search methods.

I'm going to attend, and I will write up a review for the site.

I'm pretty torn between "Woven Bead Chains or Necklaces" and "Supporting Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional and Server".

true, but I was thinking of attending the "Building an Herbal Holiday Wreath" course instead.
