19th Annual Professional Snow and Avalanche Workshop (PROSAW)

Description

Join us for the 19th Annual Professional Snow and Avalanche Workshop (PROSAW), where Utah’s avalanche community teams up with snow professionals from around the west to share avalanche knowledge. The goal of the PROSAW is to provide continuing education for avalanche workers across the country by sharing case studies and stories from different operations in different snow climates with information to help them in their day to day jobs. The workshop will follow the spirit of the International Snow Science Workshop of merging theory and practice. Presenters will include patrollers, backcountry guides and forecasters, highway forecasters, SAR personnel, snow scientists, researchers, and more. Presentations will be followed by Q & A. PROSAW is an all-day, two-part workshop; everyone is invited to join for both sessions on November 7th. The morning is dedicated to Utah-specific presentations, while the afternoon addresses stories and lessons learned nationwide.
