In the winter of 2002-03, 14 people were killed in a pair of large avalanches in British Columbia. Those horrific tragedies spurred Canada’s national parks agency to find ways to better insure public safety in the winter mountains. That’s where Grant Statham comes in. An accomplished mountain guide and avalanche forecaster, Grant led the development of new safety systems and methods that have been implemented around the world, but curiously, not in the U.S. Grant joined us to talk how we think about avalanche hazard and how we communicate that risk to the public.

Grant Statham on How We Think About And Communicate Avalanche Risk

Dom Baker

In this episode of The Avalanche Hour Podcast, Dom Baker has a conversation with Grant Statham.  Grant is a Visitor Safety Specialist with Parks Canada based in Banff, Alberta. Starting at 17 years old as a climber and ski patroller, Grant quickly became an ACMG/IFMGA mountain guide by age 24 and since then has pursued a 30-year career in mountain and ski guiding, avalanche forecasting and mountain rescue. Grant’s study of risk has led to the development of many of the avalanche risk management systems used today, including the Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale and the Conceptual Model of Avalanche Hazard. Grant is an adjunct professor with Simon Fraser University’s avalanche program, a long-time Arcteryx Ambassador works on the side as a risk consultant and ski guideFollow us on Instagram @theavalanchehourFollow our supporters on Instagram for up to date news from them.@TASBYMND@10barrelbrewing@interwest_insuranceResources on the socials@americanavalancheassociation@avalanchecanadaThe Avalanche Hour SavingsWNDR Alpine skis 10% off: FOWFFR10-4SZB7P Do note that if you order bindings with their skis, there's an automatic 10% ski &amp; binding bundle discount that gets applied and overrides this friends and family one.
