The ability to deal with backcountry medical emergencies is a vital skill to go along with your avalanche skills.  It is especially useful because it applies year round in everything you do.  On April 9-11, Utah Wilderness Safety will be conducting a Wilderness & Remote First Aid course in SLC.  As an added bonus, WMS has agreed to donate a percent of the class proceeds to the FUAC.  For more details, go to www.utahwildernesssafety.com/FIRST-AID.html.
