Ski & Bow Rack is hosting an evening with CAIC & Pagosa Weather that includes complementary refreshments from Riff Raff Brewery & giveaways!
Come join us Tonight, Tuesday, January 16th, 2024 at 5:30PM at Ski and Bow Rack at 354 E Pagosa St, Pagosa Springs. This is a follow up from the last Ski & Bow Rack event, providing more info into weather and back-country avalanche awareness.
Arleen and Shawn Prochazka from your Pagosa Weather Team will explain what makes a perfect pattern for us to get nice snow similar to what we saw this week. In addition, they’ll discuss how they determine the density of snow which is an element that impacts the stability of the snow layers. Finally, they’ll cover the basics of reading upper level soundings.
Matt Huber from Colorado Avalanche Information Center (CAIC) will cover a range of topics that include back-country safety such as aspect, terrain impacts, how to get further avalanche training, what the training covers and a host of other topics.
Ski and Bow Rack, Pagosa Weather’s Blizzard sponsor, will have a number of giveaways. In addition, you can pick up a free Pagosa Weather stickers, magnets, and yardsticks.
Finally, our friends from Riff Raff will be there with free complementary beers.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Have you considered a “Snow Dance” competition? People could post videos of their very own Snow Dance and then all of us could vote on our favorite. Could be a lot of fun to watch.
Wayne, I love that idea! We could try that as we get into a dry period at the end of the month.
