We're gearing up for another season and will begin issuing updates as conditions warrant. Scroll down for information on upcoming classes and events and current weather links. See you soon!

As we gear up for the winter season, here are a few things to consider doing:

• Attend USAW and learn more about avalanches and decision making. (scroll down to the bottom of this page for more info and links)
• Sign up for an avalanche class.
• Take the all-new online avalanche courses the UAC built for Know Before You Go or take other online courses listed on the KBYG website (Develop skills -> Online Learning).
• Get your avalanche rescue gear ready for winter. Put fresh batteries in your transceiver and update the firmware. Inspect your shovel and probe. Get your airbag backpack ready by possibly doing a test deployment and update the firmware if it is an electric version.
