Zac's Tracs current work zone

Zac’s Tracs is located east of Black Diamond, Alberta about 30 minutes southwest of Calgary, AB. Not many avalanches occur nearby…nor do we get much snow here. If anyone hears of a well priced place near Revelstoke or Sicamous with a garage and enough room to park a 4 place sled trailer…be sure to let us know. Our location could change!

Seriously though, our location has worked to our advantage. Our snow starved area near Calgary has encouraged (more like forced) us to ride the Alberta Rockies from the Chetwynd to the Crowsnest Pass and in a variety of eastern and central BC communities.
Climate and terrain characteristics work together to create unique snowpack structures. We enjoy the learning opportunity each season to recognize and test these comparisons as we travel the circuit of communities.
Currently we teach in a large variety of communities throughout Alberta, Saskatchewan and eastern British Columbia. We have taught a few classes in Idaho and Washington as well.
Discussions have been made regarding programs in Quebec, Utah, Alaska and the Yukon. Coming soon?!
