Thanks for Attending WYSAW! Got questions post event? We have answers.

Thank you to everyone who attended the 9th Annual Wyoming Snow & Avalanche Workshop. This event would not have been possible without all of our incredible speakers, sponsors, the entire crew at The Center for the Arts, the TCSAR Foundation and volunteers, the WYSAW steering committee, and all of you.

Be on the lookout for a post-event survey that includes a sweet discount code from Stio exclusive to WYSAW attendees.

Every presentation was recorded and will be edited and posted to our website within two weeks.

WYSAW is just the first step in continuing our collective efforts to learn how to be safe in the backcountry. Check in with our winter programming at Backcountry Zero, enroll in an avalanche class, and talk to your ski partners about their plans to do the same.

WYSAW Starts Today! Here is Your Digital Program.

The 9th Annual Wyoming Snow & Avalanche Workshop kicks off today, Friday, October 20, at 12 p.m. at the Center for the Arts. The schedule includes four presentations for the Pro day, which is open to everyone but speakers will tailor their discussions to those who work in the field of snow safety.

The General, or Rec, Day begins Saturday, October 21, at 9 a.m., with doors to the Center opening at 8:30. Pre-register and come early to help soften the check-in scrum.

Pre-registration is now closed, but you can still check-in at the door.

One of the new elements at this year’s WYSAW is that we will not be offering printed programs. Instead, we’ve gone digital. The program is your guide to the event, and includes speaker presentations and bios, sponsor info, how to engage with our 20 vendors set up in the Center’s lobby, and beta on the incredible WYSAW raffle. The program is mobile and desktop compatible.

See you at the Center!
