very important and sobering stuff...
AND GOOD.... thanx for mentioning this article. Regards, Andre "Tom Scarvie" wrote in message ... Andre wrote: Does anybody know a good (extensive) book about avalanches? russ wrote: If extensive is what you're looking for I'd go with "Staying Alive in Avalanche Terrain" by Bruce Tremper. Very detailed and very well written. Does a great job with the technical snow science stuff as well as with the human factor/decision making stuff. on a related note (Bruce T. is mentioned in the article), everyone who will head into the backcountry should read this: What's Wrong with Traditional Avalanche Courses? by David Spring http://www.adventureplus.org/avalanche.htm very important and sobering stuff...
