Designed
for intermediate-aged school children (grades 4-6),
SSEP is an interactive multi-media
presentation that teaches the essentials of winter outdoor
safety and supports the use of proper equipment, knowledge
and training to help reduce risks and prevent accidents.
The presentation is divided into two parts:
1) PLAYING IT SAFE IN BOUNDS
Ski hill safety for skiers and snowboarders - for a
school trip to a local ski resort, or a weekend with
family and friends.
2) OUT OF BOUNDS - WHAT DO YOU NEED FOR THE
BACKCOUNTRY?
Preparedness for mountainous areas outside a designated
resort - for those thinking about skiing or riding out-of-bounds
from a resort, or for those, including snowmobilers,
who do winter wilderness trips to areas other than a
resort.
SSEP presentations cover:
- the Alpine Responsibility Code;
- ski resort signage;
- backcountry hazards associated with “going
out-of-bounds”;
- avalanches and the need to be prepared with additional
avalanche education, training
and equipment.
