BCA is partnering with Ski-Doo snowmobiles and Avalanche1 to offer free avalanche education courses this fall for riders of all brands of snowmobiles. The 2020 avalanche safety seminars will be held online in 16 separate short video episodes.
Make sure your avalanche transceiver skills are honed by practicing in the off-season--so you don’t burn time on a mid-season powder day! A good first step is to watch the training videos on our website. Then grab a partner, if you have one, and spend a few hours in your yard or at your local park. Here are four ways to practice with your transceiver during the offseason.
Join Backcountry Access and get ready for the upcoming winter season with a refresher course in backcountry safety. Take our BCA Summer School quizzes to see how you do, and enter into our contest to win BCA gear!
Take the time to properly prep and store your backcountry gear for the next season so you dont have to deal with a beacon full of battery acid and an airbag that wont deploy when you need it most.
