WTMC Social | Hypothermia – Know Your Facts

Wed 3 Jul @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Join us for a fascinating guest talk from Dr. Jenny Visser, a lecturer in wilderness, expedition medicine and travel medicine at the University of Otago. As we head into winter proper, Jenny will talk about hypothermia specific to tramping and mountaineering, including signs, symptoms and what to do if it happens to you or people you’re out with.
.
This talk is always well-attended and a fantastic opportunity to learn first-hand about what you should be doing to stay safe outside over winter (and in general).
Looking forward to seeing you all then!
