Avalanche Training in France this Winter

Given that much of the risk over the French Alps is currently 5
(extreme) and that a number of boarders have died over the last few
days I would just like to draw your attention to this information on
various avalanche rescue training events held in French resorts:-

Of course, not getting caught in a slide is the best bet so you may be
interested in the slides for a talk I did in Val d'Isère last week

Hey,

Thanks for the info! I am not into offpiste that much yet as I'm not
advanced enough, but being informed never hurts

Leaving for Tignes this friday!

Greetings,
Geert
