Avalanche Awareness & Education

Our goal is to save lives, not just sell products. We invest more in education than we do on advertising. Here are a few of our programs:

• Cutting edge research on avalanche statistics and rescue techniques, including our groundbreaking research on “strategic shoveling.”
• Over 60 BCA Beacon Training Parks worldwide for essential transceiver search practice.
• An easy-to-read Avalanche Awareness Guide that can be used for teaching and learning.
• Our DVD, “Take Charge: Leading a Companion Rescue” teaches you how to safely and efficiently organize a rescue.
• BCA displays at retail stores illustrate how to most effectively use a beacon, probe and shovel.
• Avalanche education tours: our technical representatives are professionals who provide avalanche awareness education and programs in their regions.
• We support a variety of avalanche education programs, particularly for youth. For more details, visit our education page.
