| Please! For Safety Sake! Take an avalanche class!
For your's and your familes sake! Your kids will love having their moms and dads coming home after they go ride.
I don't want to sound like a preacher or that I am up on my soap box, but save Search and Rescue some time and be aware of your surroundings.
Most Avy Awareness clases are free or really cheap.
Most Dealers will have the schedules of the classes. You can also call your local Search And Rescue department (which is usually the local Sheriffs Office) and they will be more than happy to let you know when the next class is being held.
Also, you spent between $6k and $10k on that sled right? You dumped $2000 into it over the summer right? Whats another $300 for a Beacon, shovel and probe? All the new gear does not take a Rocket Scientist to run them. If my 12 year old can run them proficiently, so can you and you and even you! yea, you too! (hell, even my ex-wife could do it!) Also, practice with it. It's no good if you don't know how to use it.
Please be safe up there!
If you have any questions, please feel free to P.M. me or Sleddin' Daddy
Sleddin' Daddy? wanna add anything?
