This Week's Featured Video
This has been a very deadly avalanche season in the western U.S. and Canada with 19 deaths since December 14. According to the Associated Press, "Snow that fell in October and November provided an unstable base for heavy snows that fell across the West in December. Occasional rain and changing weather conditions provided additional layers that have made it easier for huge walls of snow to cleave off and plummet down the mountain."
If you are heading out of bounds at a ski area or into the backcountry you owe it to yourself and your friends to watch this important avalanche safety video from Doug Chabot and The Avalanche Guys at the Gallatin National Forest Avalanche Center. There is also a great illustrated encyclopedia of Avalanche Terms at www.Avalanche.org. You can see other videos from Doug at Backcountry Winter Sports Videos.
