There's a highly trained team of avalanche rescue personnel in Summit County, Colorado...and the most vital team members have fur. C-RAD, aka, Colorado Rapid Avalanche Deployment is a skilled team of avalanche dog handlers that train year round with their dogs so they can respond to an avalanche incident where people may have been burried.  In this episode I talk with Dough Lesch, President of C-RAD, about how he began in search and rescue and what it's like to be part of a team of avalanche rescue dogs in the mountains of Colorado.  For more information and to support C-RAD, visit their website at  www.c-rad.orgÂ
