An Afternoon Watching the Weather With Friends • A Joint Program with IATDG and the Interpretive Guides Association

Weather affects us every day, and it can either make for an epic tour or present some interesting challenges. Weather is always on our minds!

The Interpretive Guides Association’s Rod Plasman will lead us through the importance of planning for guides;

• terrain and location factors affecting climate
• observable warning signs
• forecast products you can use.

A taste of our full-day weather course, this webinar is sure to provide tips on how to be prepared for whatever the weather brings.

Full Day Mountain Weather

Learn how the weather works in the mountains!  

This program will go over fronts, clouds, weather charts, satellite photos, information available on the Internet, same day in the field forecasting and getting a longer term outlook. This is an all day course.

 

Taking this course is good for 8 hours of CPD. There will be an optional exercise where you create your own forecast and email it to the instructor. This will qualify for 2 additional hours of CPD so doing both will get you the full amount you need for the year.
