The Chilean Ski Patrol’s mission is to assist the skiers who arrive at our winter resort during the season, avoiding accidents, providing safety and rescuing those in need. The organization is now receiving applications for 2010 at its website, www.patrullas.cl
Participants will receive important training in first aid from the Chilean Red Cross, along with various theoretical and practical workshops on rescue procedures that will enable them to provide very important support services to the fans of the white sport. The requirements are to be of legal age (+18 years), have advanced skiing skills and be in good physical condition to be able to work in the Andes Mountains.
