Revision as of 08:15, 20 September 2012
Suggestions coming from the March 21, 2010 critique regarding the March 20 mock search and the March 7 avalanche response.
Pincher Creek SAR routinely performs a critique after a Search and Rescue incident in order to learn what should be done differently or the same in the next similar incident. Critiques are not about criticism but rather about learning. They are normally chaired by a Search Manager that was not involved in the incident. The suggestions that are brought forward through the critique process are presented in this report.
