From bombs to bombillas, Snow Nomad: An Avalanche Memoir, chronicles the fifty seasons author Alan Dennis worked in the avalanche patch, travelling between Canada, New Zealand, Scotland and Argentina. This unconventional journey on an undulating career path is one riddled with wit and wisdom he gained when plying his trade at ski resorts, mining camps, highway operations, film sets and beyond. Dennis introspectively recalls the times when he was in over his head, but learned to rely on his training, intuition and, perhaps most of all, luck. Snow Nomad is a humble and heartfelt tribute to his family, friends and colleagues (and sometimes even foes) with who he shared these decades, whether shooting artillery in Canada’s remote reaches, scrambling up a summit in the Scottish Highlands or bunking in a mining camp in Argentina’s Andes.
