Description
Back country skiers, snow boarders, and snowmobilers must be aware of the dangers of avalanches and be able to recognize the conditions that lead to avalanche release, as well as equipment that can help save peoples' lives. Professional snowboarders, skiers, and snowmobilers discuss the five basic things: get the gear, get avalanche training, get the forecast, get the picture, and get out of harms way.
