Avalanche! - Advanced
Advertisement
A practical three day avalanche education course for future VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) winters. Geared towards the user groups, and rapidly changing snowpack experienced in the Scottish winter.
There is no doubt that Scottish winters are changing. Thin striated snowpacks with inconsistent weather conditions result in rapidly evolving avalanche problems, often dissipating as quickly as they arrived. Bare ground close to other locations with abundant snow accumulations creates a complex decision making environment. This combined with a limited opportunity to make observations demands that we change our approach.
Avalanche! – Advanced is about advancing our practice not theory. Perhaps even evolving the existing paradigm. You will learn how to reframe your existing avalanche knowledge using the counterpoint strategies of VUCA Prime. If you are working in the mountains professionally you may also be interested in Mountain CRM – Human Factors for Instructors.
Maximum Number of participants: 6, Cost: £480
