WMS Annual Conference in Snowmass, CO

[Daniel Doan]

Hey-o warm weather peeps,

 

This year's annual Wilderness Medical Society conference is in Snowmass, CO on July 23-38th.  Just a few of the topics that will be covered during this conference include: Tyrolean Traverses, Mount Everest Rescue Stories, Rock Climbing injuries, Backcountry Trauma Ultrasound, Jungle Travel and Survival, and Shark Attacks.  Also, one of the planned activities is ascending a 14,000+ peak nearby. (!) 

 

I will be going to present a poster, but if anyone out there is interested in going and potentially also sharing a hotel room, let me know!  It should be amazing.

Holy crap Paul Auerbach that guy is so cool,
