This Thursday, Dec. 29 the Tram Club Snowbird Center in Snowbird, Utah will be hosting an avalanche awareness clinic. For those of you heading into the backcountry this season, this will be a good refresher on avalanche knowledge and safety.

Members from the Utah Avalanche center and the Arva Snow Safety Equipment will be giving presentations to show riders how to safely shred in the danger zone. After the clinic there will be a raffle for various ski and snowboarding gear and live music. Check out the clinic and score some free stuff from 6 – 8 p.m.
