I have a 700 word article due for school on monday. I'm planning on doing one about avalanche control, and i'm trying to find someone who has worked as a ski patrol to interview for this.  i'm getting a little frantic, seeing as how i'm out of town in edmonton all weekend, and the thing is due monday. so if anyone works or used to work as a patroller, or has a good friend that does, send me a message if i could get a short interview. thanks so much to anyone who can help me out.

Just make the shit up. They bomb with handheld fuse charges that they throw, they sometimes use howitzers at some hills like kickinghorse and some others, then they ski cut to control avalanches. 700 words isn't that much so you should be fine. Unless you need an interview for the report but just make that shit up too.

nah i know what they do for everything, but i need to interview 2 people for the article.  i could make it up, but i hate doing that just on principle, and my proff this semester has told us that we have to provide the phone numbers of everyone quoted in our stories so he can call people at random to see how our interviews went.

thanks, but it's going alright, i talked to the head of csps at louise, so it's all good.
