There will be several activities going on during the day, including:

• Transceiver Hunt - Did you know that Fernie Alpine Resort has a transceiver training area? It is located on Heartland just above the 100% road. Come out and learn how to use a transceiver (or bring your own) and test your practice area skills. For every buried transceiver that you find, you will get an entry into a prize draw for great prizes from Helly Hansen and Avalanche Canada.
• CARDA Dog demo - Come out and meet one of our Avalanche Rescue dogs as they demonstrate what they do and the training that goes into an Avalanche Rescue dog.
• Snow Pit Demo - Join our pro patrol at the top of the Bear Chair as they will go through a snow pit profile and how they use it to gather information on the snowpack.
• Fundraising Auction - Come to the Griz Bar during Saturday Apres to score some great gear from Avalanche Canada sponsors. 100% of the funds raised will go towards Avalanche Canada.
