Organizational Documents

For 30 years or more the project was incorporated as the Cyberspace Snow and Avalanche Center, denoted by CSAC. Over time support has diminished and the paperwork and fees of maintaining any status with the government became incompatible with an effort to provide public services, many of which are free. While we can no longer afford to be registered with Oregon our US tax exempt status has not yet been revoked, although we assume it will be at some point.

The project is now an individual effort and goes by the new name "The Avalanche Center" or Avalanche-Center.org. Emphasis is now placed on services for a fee, such as education and publications. There are still free public services provided and support for that is appreciated. There is no longer any effort to actively fundraise but there will be options available to facilitate small donations (such as "buy me a coffee", maybe substack, etc).

Canadian Organizational Documents

At one time we had a lot of support from Canada, and we were the online sources for CAA bulletins before they figured out the internet. However, the status in Canada has lapsed over the years and we have no idea what our status is but assume we are defunct as far as any official organizational status there. These documents are ling obsolete and no longer posted here.
