![]() CMH has developed a comprehensive snow and avalanche management system which includes procedures for collecting weather and snow information; evaluating snowpack stability; assessing hazards in the terrain; and determining an appropriate skiing program tailored to on-the-ground conditions. Each area has a snow safety guide, operating separately from the skiing program, who makes additional observations as required to facilitate informed decisions by the guiding team. Observations are shared between all CMH areas on a daily conference call, and are relayed to the Canadian Avalanche Centre, where they are compiled in a daily, industry wide information exchange. We actively participate in avalanche research projects with the University of Calgary and the University of British Columbia.
