Avalanche Awareness on BT Edmonton
Lori Zacaruk was invited back as a guest on the Breakfast Television show in Edmonton, AB on February 12, 2010.
During the interview, BT host Ryan Jespersen, refers to this video clip of a skier that was caught in an avalanche. The skier’s helmet camera records the entire experience through to the rescue.

It is unbelievable footage. Fortunately, this man was successfully rescued by his properly trained and equipped partners.
Once an avalanche is triggered the clock starts ticking…
WHETHER YOU ARE READY OR NOT.
Kind of reminds me of a live television interview!!
No such thing as a ‘retake’...
Everything happens so fast…
You have very little control…
You find yourself running on autopilot…
Before you know it its all over…
You walk away…
Your mind is overflowing with all those things that you ‘coulda’ or ‘shoulda’ done.
No matter the intensity or importance of any situation you may find yourself in, it really all comes down to this; being prepared and confident that no matter what life throws at you, you can look back feeling that “while it may not have been perfect, I am proud of what I did accomplish.”
Would you have any regrets?
We are our own toughest critics. Keep your avalanche skills and gear in top notch shape. Remember…there are no ‘retakes’.
