Skiers Advocating and Fostering Education for Avalanche and Snow Safety
S.A.F.E. A.S. Clinics were started by Elyse Saugstad, Jackie Paaso, Lel Tone, Michelle Parker, Ingrid Backstrom, and Sherry McConkey. With the goals of heightening community snow safety and avalanche awareness we have created a women’s intro to avalanche safety clinic. With the success of last years event, we have expanded to now include two full days at Squaw Valley and two full days in the Pacific Northwest. We hope to foster an open, welcoming environment by which to encourage participation and communication.
Join the Squaw Valley event(s) on December 8th and 9th!
