My Avalanche Education

Danger lurks everywhere in the backcountry, and winter is no exception—but that danger can be mitigated through proper education. Which is why our writers set out to learn everything they could about avalanche safety this season, to keep themselves and their ski partners safe while touring the mountains of southwest Montana. They documented their experience in a series of articles; below are links to each one. Sponsors for this series are the Round House, Chalet Sports, and Backcountry Access.
