In episode 5.17 Part 2 of The Avalanche Hour’s Third Thursday; Dom Baker continues his Zoom call with Grant Helgeson. Grant is a Senior Forecaster and Project Manager for Avalanche Canada who makes good decisions 99% of the time. If he’s not at work or playing in the hills, he’s probably lusting after fancy bikes or Google Earth skiing your favourite lines.

Dom and Grant discuss his path into Avalanche forecasting and the challenges it presents in data sparse regions. There’s so much covered that we’ve broken the release into two parts. To find out more about Grant, or information about Avalanche canada head on over to:
