JAN 25: Beacon Park Search Support

• Hang out with Emily from FSAC and practice using your transceiver in a variety of single or multi-burial scenarios. Beacon, shovel, and probe equipment will be available for those who do not have their own.
• Join Mollie & Maverick, our B.A.R.K.9 avalanche dog and handler duo at 12:30pm and 1:30pm for an avalanche burial demonstration. Mollie will simulate a burial search with her dog, Maverick, near the beacon park.
