The Daily Pow
Utah Avalanche Center, ACE (Alta Community Enrichment) and SheJumps present the 2011-2012 Women’s Beacon Clinic that will be held Monday December 5th at Alta’s Albion Grill from 8:30am- 11:30am.
Designed for all levels of ability, the Beacon Clinic will get you out on the snow to practice using your beacon. The three hour clinic will go over the basics of using your beacon. The class will be led by Evelyn Lees, a U.S. Forest Service Avalanche Center Forecaster and mountain guide.
Whether you are a seasoned backcountry traveler or a first time beacon user, this course will be useful and a good refresher to everyone who attends. Knowing how to use your beacon in the backcountry is the most important skill you can have.
The class is free but you must register as to keep the teacher/student ratio low. Go to: http://utahavalanchecenter.org/womens_free_beacon_clinic
