Halsted sent me a number of photos from the ceremony, but the best one he sent is from your website/ you took it. I was wondering if you could let me use/ send me a hi-res version of this photo to use with that article please? Hmm it won't paste- not surprising. It is the photo with Halsted, Dale, Scott, and Knox. thanks Lynne Wolfe Hi Lou-

Which in turn has provided avalanche forecasts, education resources and accident investigation that have helped everyone from the Highway Department to backcountry skiers.

Not to diminish any/all of his great accomplishments listed here but I do not remember him at all during any of my fathers avalanche training sessions my father ran during those times you mention. I was there for many years helping/assisting my father with the program Ronald Halley, jr. ran for all patrolmen during those days. Perhaps I have forgot his face and name as one that was there with my father. Have a great day! Tim Hello Lou

Knox and Scott built the CAIC into a very useful tool for decision making in the backcountry. Our trips into the snowy backcountry would be much less safe without their weather and avalanche forcasts every morning. Yes, congratulations to Knox and Scott and all the “Avy Boyz”.
