More in the Snow






It is hard to imagine that a little over a week ago we were in 90 degree weather with 90 percent humidity. In Montana, students are honing medical skills in a cold environment, learning about hypothermia and frostbite, and navigating through the snowy mountains. From top to bottom, photos are of: looking East from the Ranch; learning the local topography with Andrea; mountain lion tracks found during the first day of exploration North of the Ranch; what it looks like when you try to run a race through five feet of snow; two groups of two meeting up in the hills overlooking the Blackfoot valley, just above the Ranch. For the next two days, many students are seeing patients in Missoula while riding on the ambulance and observing in the emergency departments.
