Share Your State of the Snowpack Story
Jason Wishlow (Whitewater Mountain Resort Forecaster, SOTS Board Member) delivers the snowpack update for Nelson, BC
Every winter, mountain communities across Canada come together through State of the Snowpack to learn, ask questions, share experiences, and better understand the snowpack where they live, work, and recreate.
Some people leave with a better understanding of persistent weak layers. Others gain confidence using avalanche forecasts or companion rescue equipment. Many simply leave with new friends, new touring partners, and a stronger connection to their local backcountry community.
Every person's experience is different.
As State of the Snowpack continues to grow, those stories matter.
If attending a SOTS event has influenced how you approach the backcountry, helped you make better decisions, introduced you to new people, or simply reminded you why community matters, please consider sharing your experience by leaving a review on Google or Facebook.
Your perspective helps others discover these free, community-led events and gives mountain communities considering a SOTS chapter a glimpse into why these conversations are so valuable.
