Show Notes

WINTER IS HERE! And with it, sketchy avalanche conditions (whomp, whomp, whomp….). 

Last week’s storm kicked our winter into high gear and radically changed our snowpack. On this week’s episode, we’ll take a look back at the storm, get an update on the state of the snowpack, and dive into a valuable debrief of a local avalanche incident that happened this past Saturday. I’m joined by Jonathon Cooper and Kaylee Walden for an engaging conversation in which we share some of our reflections from this weekend in hopes that you can learn from our mistakes and to try to reduce the stigma around talking about avalanche incidents and reporting slides to the CAIC.  

Thanks as always to you for listening and to Coop and Kaylee for joining me this week! Hungry for more snow and avalanche info between podcasts? Follow me on Instagram @sanjuansnowcast.
