| In our commitment to safety,
Snowbasin is pleased to present our Avalanche Rescue Training
Center. Built in cooperation with Wasatch Backcountry Rescue and
the “Are You Beeping” and “Stay On Top Of It” public awareness
campaigns, the center offers backcountry enthusiasts an
opportunity to sharpen their rescue skills in the safety of a
controlled environment. Located next to the Ski Patrol building
near the Main Plaza (at the base), the Avalanche Rescue Training
Center allows users to practice finding one to four buried
"targets" in the snow using their avalanche transceivers
(provided by user) and probes (provided by Snowbasin). A
flashing light and siren indicate when a target has been found,
and the rescue time is recorded. The training facility is free
to the public and is open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. In case of emergency call 911 or the Information Desk - (801)
620-1000
