There are a series of short seminars on Avalanche awareness that are taking place at Xscape Milton Keyenes in October and November by Henry Schniewind called ‘Henry’s Avalanche Talks’. Cost is just £5. I don’t know anything about Henry but his CV is pretty impressive and I am sure that any keen off piste skier or boarder will come out better off than they went in.
