Eastside K-9 is a 501c3 not for profit organization that was formed in 2004 to provide avalanche rescue dogs in case of person(s) buried in an avalanche. Eastside K-9 also provides backcountry safety education on the dangers of traveling in avalanche terrain.
Your best chance for survival if caught in an avalanche is self rescue within your touring party. So make sure everyone has a avalanche transceiver, shovel, probe and that they know how to use them. Check with the local avalanche forecasting center. "Know before you go"
