Abstract

Mt. Baker Snow School is a cooperative program between Mt. Baker Ski Area, the Northwest Avalanche Center, Western Washington University, and the U.S. Forest Service (Mt. Baker Ski Area Inc). The aim of the program is to provide a hands-on educational experience for middle school students to learn about snow science. Snow School is primarily run by volunteer instructors, along with a few professional lead instructors from NWAC and WWU, the education coordinator Devon Schoos, the onsite coordinator Pat Kennedy and the Mt. Baker Ski Area representative Rachel Grasso. As an intern with Mt. Baker Snow School, I worked as an instructor and group guide for the six week duration of the 2024 winter program.
