@gingerzee: At least 21 avalanche deaths already this season and with the all-time March heat out west avalanche threat is spiking. Most avalanches are triggered by the victim or someone in their party. 1. Check the avalanche forecast 2. Take an avalanche course 3. Never go back country alone 4. Wear a beacon Most avalanche victims only have 15 minutes to survive so your partner or party our key. By the time rescuers get there it’s often too late.
