Snow School I
October 24th, 2007 by Ken Mankoff
I had this email in my inbox this morning:
You are scheduled to attend a 2-day Field Safety Training Program (FSTP) Snow School course tomorrow. You need to be at the FSTP classroom (upstairs in the SSC/Bldg 4) at 0900 with ECW gear. Please be on time!Part of this course is spending a night outdoors…getting a genuine taste of the Antarctic field. It is intended to better prepare you for working out in the environment…and the potential, unexpected experience of getting caught out in it.
I'll be back Saturday evening. Here is the weather report/forecast. Think warm thoughts for me…
