TZMP Snowy Getaway

ZAZZU

TZMP conducted a weekend of winter exercises atop snowmobiles riding in formation in mountain terrain.

Mounted Patrol team members practiced safe equipment handling, winter navigation, passenger protocols, and mounted search and rescue response on snowmobiles at various speeds and inclines.

“ Plan your ride and slide your plan ”

Participants were briefed on proper emergency survival gear and appropriate clothing for cold weather conditions, as well as high-speed hazards in unforgiving environments, including frostbite, hypothermia, wildlife, hidden obstacles, mechanical failure, avalanche dangers, and getting lost.
