Avalanche Awareness Days
Avalanche Awareness Days is a national celebration of Canada’s avalanche safety expertise and an invitation to enjoy the winter backcountry with education and training.
We will be in Crystal Bowl all weekend on January 28th & 29th with various events going on. Look for the Kicking Horse Arch and Tent in Crystal Bowl!
