Winter Hiking Tips & Lessons Shared From SAR

After hearing a fairly disturbing yet all too common story from my county’s search and rescue team - we gotta talk a little more about winter in Colorado and other high elevation areas across the western US. Listen in for some quick winter hiking tips and what not to do in avalanche territory.

Links mentioned in this episode:

If you want to get into winter hiking and aren't near any avalanche zones - join the upcoming Winter Hiking Workshop on Patreon.
