Rescue dogs show their stuff at Arapahoe Basin.

Eight-year-old avalanche dog Rio, a golden retriever, finds Jack Western of the A-basin Ski Patrol in the top photo and rescues him during a demonstration Saturday during the Beacon Bowl at Arapahoe Basin Ski & Snowboard Area. The Beacon Bowl is an all-day event developed by the A-basin Ski Patrol. The event includes a beacon search competition, as well as avalanche dog and beacon demonstrations.
