BIWABIK - On Sept 28/29, 2002 in conjunction with the
Western Region Fall Meeting, a Mountain Travel and Rescue Level I course
was held. Ten students attended the course taught by Daryl Coons,
Western Region Mountain Travel & Rescue Supervisor, Mike Peters and
Howard Holz. This basic level course is an introduction to skills
that are useful to any patrol member who spends time in the outdoors at
any time of the year. The classroom session on Saturday covered basic
skills with some time outside to practice map and compass skills and emergency
shelter building skills. On Sunday morning, eight of the students
were able to join Daryl and Howard for the field session where the students
got to practice the skills discussed on Saturday including lunch at the
top of the ski area. What a view!
The Lodge is which way??
