Show Avalanche clinic will show you what to avoid Park C ii Nt Tbiir. . December 30, 1982 Page C3 "The nature of a mountain snow pack is a very complex subject and a mistake could wind you up in the middle of an avalanche," says Steve Erickson of White Pine Ski Touring. "In the avalanche clinic we're putting on in conjunction with the Park City Recreation Department we'll be providing a basic introduction to avalanche awareness so people get an understanding of snow processes pro-cesses and how to make stability analysis." The two-day avalanche session will be held on Thursday, Jan. 6 and Sunday, Sun-day, Jan. 9. Thursday's opening session ses-sion will be at the Memorial Building from 7 to 10 p.m. This indoor session will be devoted to a theoretical examination of avalanche topics. Slides will be shown and technical aspects of avalanche safety will be covered. "The opening session will be a basic introduction to avalanche awareness," says Erickson. "Dave Hanscom will give an introductory lecture on general safety, route selection, how to determine deter-mine where an avalanche will happen and safety procedures to use should one occur." Erickson says that he will follow up Hanscom's presentation presen-tation with a discussion of snow pack, snow processes and the rhanees in safWv conditions they can cause unless the touring or downhill down-hill skier is aware of the signs. The clinic's second session on Sunday will find participants parti-cipants actually venturing out to the mountains for a look at the real thing. This part of the clinic will focus on hazards, rescue and avalanche ava-lanche control. "We're not sure exactly where we'll go," says Erickson. Erick-son. "That will be determined deter-mined by the wishes of those who participate in the clinic. If we get a bunch of cross-country skiers, we'll go where they want to go. If we get more downhill types, we'll go that route. "Regardless of where we go," continues Erickson, "we'll take people into the field and illustrate, in practical prac-tical demonstrations, the sorts of things we'll be talking about in Thursday's class sessions. "We'll dig snow holes, look at the snowpack and learn how to evaluate it and know where the danger is," says Erickson. Erickson will be joined by other staff members of White Pine Touring as well as Jim Dayton of the Park City Ski Patrol in conducting the two-day clinic. Registration is $15 for the two sessions.
