Backcountry Recreation and Covid-19 Survey
Here's a chance for you to contribute to avalanche safety research. Researchers hope to learn if, and how, use of the winter backcountry has changed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Please take 5 minutes to complete this survey from the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine, and Montana State University, in concert with The National Avalanche Center.
Getting the forecast is the most important thing you can do before you head into the backcountry. We are joining our partners at the Friends of CAIC and asking everyone to pledge to check the avalanche forecast before you head out into the backcountry this winter. Take it, share it, do it - let's build a safer community together! https://www.forecastpledge.org
