New: Wallowa Avalanche Center

[prussik1]

The Wallowa Avalanche Center is a not-for-profit organization for public benefit in Northeast Oregon. All officers, board members, advisors and observers are unpaid volunteers.

 

The mission is to provide winter recreational users in the Wallowa Mountains with information and education to assist in making responsible, appropriate and safe travel decisions in the winter backcountry while managing avalanche hazard.

 

Please visit the website at: www.wallowaavalanchecenter.org

 

The goals for the coming winter are: Establish an observer network; install new weather instrumentation; provide a web-based source of weather and snowpack information; post a weekly summary; host an online forum for backcountry users to exchange information and observations; sponsor or provide links to avalanche education opportunities.
