Help shape new sled specific avy safety tools! Survey with prizes!

[zacs]

Can you help us with a snowmobile specific research initiative?

In collaboration with the Canadian Avalanche Centre (CAC), a research team at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver is currently conducting an online survey on mountain snowmobiling and avalanche awareness.
The goal of the research team is to gather information on how mountain riders perceive avalanche hazard and how we decide where to ride.

The results of this study will lead to tools and services that better support our sled community.

While there are occasional references to the Canadian Avalanche Centre, this survey is geared to mountain snowmobilers in general and riders from other countries can simply substitute in their local forecast organizations as appropriate.

CLICK HERE TO BEGIN THE SURVEY - Simon Fraser University - Mountain Snowmobiling Study 2012.
Simply click on ‘Create personal survey account’ to start.

UPDATE: For anyone that is having troubles with the survey, send a quick email to avalanche@sfu.ca and they can sneak you back into the middle of the survey to complete it.

As a token of appreciation, participants who complete the survey before May 30 will be entered in a draw for one of five two-night stays at a popular BC snowmobile destination. Curious about which towns/hotels were selected?

Thanks for your ongoing support of avy safety! We are making a difference!!

When you get to the pages that show the 3 types of zones... something is wrong with the survey. It I'm assuming is supposed to show the typical character of the areas... but that's not there, then when you get to the "Going for a Ride - 1 of 3 - At the Cabin" page... there's no next button. I'm using chrome.

Character of typical terrain within zone: this is missing in the three zones


I then tried loading it in IE & the page wouldn't even load.

Thanks for the feedback. I have forwarded your comments to Pascal. Hopefully he can help.
Enjoy the weekend!

It worked fine for me. I thought it was a good survey.
Does that mean I win?
