Each winter, an alarming average of 30 lives are claimed by avalanches in the United States, and 15 in Canada, despite professionals being at significantly higher risk. A question arises: Why is this disparity so stark?
This comprehensive guide delves into the fundamentals of avalanche safety, drawing from my extensive experience as an avalanche professional spanning three and a half decades. It offers a systematic, step-by-step approach to ensure safety and survival in challenging backcountry conditions, equipping readers with evidence-based decision-making strategies. Furthermore, it prepares you for worst-case scenarios, detailing what actions to take when faced with an unexpected turn of events.
