2013-2014 Intro and Advanced Avalanche Training Classes - Zac's Tracs & Trigger Point
Zac's Tracs Avalanche and Snow Safety Training and Trigger Point Snow Services are working together again this season to deliver a full range of classes in BC, Alberta & Saskatchewan.
Click on the links below for more information.
For those that may not know us here is a bit of background:
What I’m hoping to share is that we are very experienced, committed and passionate about our sport and all the people involved.
Avalanche safety is more than just a certificate. It is a new way of looking at the mountains, at snow, but mostly a new way of looking at the people we ride with and how and why we make the decisions we do.
Snowmobiles travel fast. We need to think faster.
Snowmobiles can cover a lot of ground. We need to understand where the ‘minefields’ are.
Our riding partners can be assets or liabilities. Sometimes they're just asses....
Both Zac's and Trigger Point instructors have worked with thousands of sledders and this has given us the opportunity to test and retest our group exercises, training materials and video clips in order that we cover the material efficiently but also in a fun and interactive way that leads to high retention for those participating. What good is it if you hear great information but you don’t have the time to apply it? What good is it if you plunk your butt in a training session and don’t actively participate?
These courses can literally be the difference between life and death. Choose wisely.
Visit us at the Edmonton and Saskatoon snowmobile shows.
Feel free to call us if you have any questions.
