Professional Snow Training

"Because of the specialized nature of this course, the student is expected to bring the snow vehicles they currently use to class."
- SafetyOne course description
One of the fun things about this blog is learning new things. Who knew there are companies that teach OSHA certified winter survival for drivers of snow plows and other winter equipment? It sounded like a fun class to take until I found the quote above - bring your own snow plow to class!!
I wish I knew how much the classes cost. The web site show zero dollars when I try to register. http://www.safetyoneinc.com/winter-safety-training.html

Bottom Line

Winter weather is no joke. If you are a hunter or work in winter wilderness areas then seriously consider attending a winter survival class. It may save your life. Here are some links I found on Google but I have no experience with these courses:
