| Course Handouts & Avalanche Resources So far as we know, we are the only people teaching avalanche courses who have put so much of our course material on the web, including detailed topic handouts, maps, course presentations, and a whole section of urban and general avalanche information. This is a tremendous resource, take advantage of it to educate yourself! Other educators are free to use this material IF they prominently credit the source. When you click the links for the PDFs and presentations, the download will begin. If you are on a slow Internet connection, be aware that the larger files will take some time to download. |
