The Colorado Avalanche Information Center Has Upped its forecast to an Avalanche Advisory for the entirety of the state. Here's what you need to know before traveling.
So important to alert people of this information! I did an article for "Dog Fancy" magazine on the Avalanche Rescue Dogs of Sundance Resort. I learned so much! The patrol and their trained dogs work incredibly hard to protect people from exposure to possible avalanches. Obviously, that can't prevent an avalanche, but they can try to protect skiers and others from getting caught in one. The areas that are avalanche prone for each day are clearly marked thanks to the patrol, and inevitably, humans go outside those marked boundaries for what they think will be a more thrilling experience.
