Description:

Since graduating from Vassar College a decade ago, Dan has been trying to shed his urban upbringing and become a country boy—with limited success. His free time is currently occupied with three projects: climbing and skiing the 100 highest peaks in CA; teaching his golden retriever, Sammy, to be the best backcountry skiing dog ever; and soaking in (literally) every one of the Eastern Sierra's many hot springs. Dan believes that WMA's commitment to scientific and educational excellence is why it stands alone as the leader in wilderness medical training. He is a training officer with the Mammoth Mountain Ski Patrol, a Firefighter-EMT with the Mammoth Lakes Fire Department, and teaches backpacking, mountaineering, and outdoor leadership for Adventure Treks.
