Understanding and Managing Stress
Ski Patrollers are likely to experience critical incidents on the hill, which can lead to a range of stress reactions—any of which, including none at all, are normal. These reactions can vary in form, intensity, and timing, sometimes emerging long after the event. Even routine rescues can trigger them. Support from peers and family helps speed recovery, and awareness of potential stress reactions can improve preparedness.
A Patrol Stress Awareness Forum takes place on the second Wednesday of each month at 7 PM. All patrol members are invited. Click here for more details What’s Next – Trail Sweep Wants Your Stories!
Trail Sweep, the Eastern Division News Magazine, is looking for updates from programs on what was accomplished in 2025 and what’s ahead for the spring and summer months. We want to share the milestones, events, and progress happening across the division.
Trail Sweep covers programs, events, people, and other informative and engaging topics. Published monthly during the fall and ski season, we also release additional issues as needed. While we have an editorial staff, we rely on program advisors, administrators, and patrollers to provide the articles that keep our publication timely and relevant. If there’s something you’d like to see featured, let us know—or better yet, submit an article! Send your updates to [email protected]. Keep in mind that “less is more,” and photographs are always welcome. Need help writing? Just send us the key details—who, what, where, when, and why—and we’ll help shape your story. Even a rough draft works! We look forward to hearing about your 2025 accomplishments and what’s ahead!
