Companion Rescue Clinic for Snowmobilers
This six-hour clinic takes place entirely in field outside of Cooke City. Every participant needs an avalanche beacon, shovel and probe and must have their own snowmobile.
The course goals are to 1) learn how to wear and operate an avalanche beacon, and 2) perform a mock rescue including single and multiple burial search.
During the day we will cover the importance of beacon skills; beacon operation and search principles; demonstration and practice of initial, secondary and pinpoint search; rescue practice scenarios including group management, probing and shoveling; overview of first aid and emergency skills needed in actual rescues.
Meet at Cooke City Motor Sports, 203 Eaton St, 9:30am
The $20 donation covers the costs of the instuctors; 8:1 ratio.
