CONGRATULATIONS!! – Joe Huston completed his GSAR 2 Lead Instructor qualification in July
August training schedule is as busy as ever. And the summer heat is bearing down here at home base.
October 3-7, 2019 is our Fall Colors ATV trip. This weekend coincides with the fall foliage colors. Aspen and other annual trees turn their brilliant colors before shedding the leaves for the winter. The temperatures can get to near freezing, but it is a dry cold. We run trails, hike and enjoy campfires and beverages in the evening. We do also include some rescue training.
We have 5 new trails already picked out.
We stay at the Chinook Cabins and RV Park in South Fork, Colorado. We already have our cabin and have several people signed up to go. When we talked to the owners, we were told that at that time, we had the place to ourselves and that they may be able to join us on some of the training runs.
Website Under Construction
Camille has been spending a great deal of time revamping our web site to make it more user friendly. It is still under construction and there have been some hiccups as she is learning this program from scratch. The course calendar is now updated automatically, and individual course information is much easier to put on each class. She has visions of grandeur of the things she wants to be able to do with it.
To register, call or email either of us at the office.
