Donate to West Central MT Avalanche Foundation!
Avalanche knowledge and safety is a major part of skimo and all back country adventuring in the winter. We want to support West Central MT Avalanche Foundation for all the work they do to help educate back country users through their forecasting and programming.

From their website:
The West Central Montana Avalanche Foundation (WCMAF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. The mission of the WCMAF is to support avalanche forecasting and education programs for all backcountry user groups.
The WCMAF operates in support of the West Central Montana Avalanche Center (WCMAC). The WCMAC generates avalanche forecasts for the West Central Montana advisory area and provides information to the public regarding terrain, weather, and snow conditions that contribute to avalanche danger. The WCMAC is assisted by Forest Service employees on the Bitterroot, Clearwater, and Lolo National Forests who contribute field observations and provide infrastructure support.
The WCMAF provides and maintains four avalanche transceiver training parks which are located at the Lost Trail Pass Ski Area, Lolo Pass Visitor Center, Montana Snowbowl Ski Area, and the Seeley Lake Driftriders Warming Hut (more details).
