I attended an evening Basic Avalanche course through the Wasatch Mountain Club that I have just recently joined. This is the first of a two part Basic Avalanche course. The session was held at a church near 3900 South and 3000 East. The presenter was from the Utah Avalanche Center. It turned out to be the director Bruce Tremper who is the author of a booked that I had purchased a few months earlier entitled "How to Survive in Avalanche Country". He had a video and a powerpoint presentation. The session was incredibly informative and will help me make real good decision about winter backcountry travel. The second part of the training will be field work on Saturday.
