Avalanche Dogs

The Canadian Avalanche Rescue Dog Association (CARDA) was founded in 1978 and is dedicated to saving the lives of avalanche victims through the use of highly trained dog and handlers. Made up of volunteers who have passed an intensive training program, CARDA strives to maintain a network of efficient avalanche search and rescue dog teams in Canada.

Castle Mountain is proudly represented by three avalanche dogs and their handler(s). The teams have a range of experience, from puppies entering the first stages of training to dogs with years of experience. Their names are Avi, Huck and Kali.
