Meeting with Mark and Carl from Ski Patrol
Week 5. For week 5 we interviewed the safety patrol. The older of the two men had been working there for two years as for the younger it was his first but they both have had previous experience with ski patrol before. The older man was a skier as for the younger man was a snowboarder. Growing up they loved to ski/snowboard and they also loved to help people so when they went into college and then now they both work at Mount Snow. In the beginning we had to get a fellow student on to the backboard because he was acting hurt. We did it safely and he had fun. The best part of the day was when I and another fellow student got to ride on a rescue toboggan on the way down some of the mountain and that was a blast but you get a lot of snow in your face on the way down the hill because there snowboard was sending the snow into our face. At the end we had a person in our groupe want to sign up for the job, but he was too young and so he is going to try for it when he’s older.
