IKAR "Time is Life" Avalanche Training Video

Dale Atkin's review... "It is a comprehensive training DVD for avalanche medical
and rescue responses aimed at all level of rescuers, from the first aider to
the physician. The DVD is self running (stand alone, PC, and Mac), and
includes a PowerPoint presentation, and an interactive test and evaluation."
