Does Culture Eat Training for Breakfast?
from Utah Avalanche Center Podcast Hosted by Utah Avalanche Center
It's been said that culture eats training for breakfast.

AMGA/IFMGA mountain guide Margaret Wheeler and Sawtooth Avalanche Center forecaster Chris Lundy join us for a conversation about the push and pull between cultural pressures, "selfish" rewards and the difficulty of actually understanding risk in the backcountry.
