Kokanee snowmobile club urges caution

Creston’s Kokanee Country Snowmobile Club wants you to play safe in the backcountry this winter.

This in light of the death last week of a sledder caught in an avalanche near Valemount.

President Trish Drinkle says the club provides educational opportunities.

The class is on the 21st and 22nd.

Drinkle says groups like theirs are great resources.
