Why choose Zac's Tracs?

Zac’s Tracs is the premier provider of avalanche skills training for snowmobilers in Canada. We offer classroom and field based training. Lori Zacaruk is a graduate of the Canadian Avalanche Association’s first Level 2 Industry Training Program for Snowmobile Operators. This CAA program is the first of its kind in the world.

Over the past 9 seasons Zac’s has worked independently and as a contractor with the Canadian Avalanche Centre and the Alberta Snowmobile Association to reach over:
•10,000 school students
•1000’s of snowmobilers at tradeshows in Alberta & Saskatchewan
•3,400 adults in classroom presentations
•1,200 snowmobilers through hands-on field training exercises

Most recently Lori Zacaruk was invited by respected avalanche researcher, Dr. Bruce Jamieson, to assist in the revision of the CAA endorsed “Sledding in Avalanche Terrain” course manual.

As a co-author Lori’s contributions of snowmobile specific references and images added great value to the project.

Zac’s Tracs has a fully mobile training package, having offered custom programs throughout Alberta, Saskatchewan, central and eastern British Columbia, Idaho and Washington.

To increase the value and enjoyment of the field exercises Zac’s provides snow study gear and props for rescue scenarios.
In addition, Zac’s has access to a full variety of avalanche rescue tools for demonstration purposes and student use.
Classroom sessions are improved each year as the programs evolve to utilize a combination of activities including snowmobile specific images, video, case studies, interactive classroom and hands-on practical activities.

“What have YOU got to LOSE?! INVEST in yourselves this season.
You have the gear, now is the time to learn to use it.”
