Description
This small volume has been written to fill the need of skiers and mountaineers for a ready "in the field" reference on avalanche conditions and rescue operations. To become a practical avalanche expert requires time, study and experience -- more of each than most of us can spare. Each year there are avalanche accidents, may avoidable, and many fatal only because the survivors became confused and did not follow the proper rescue procedures. This book in the pocket of a rucksack will help to supply the right information at the right time. It is not a textbook. For more complete study, read some of the works listed in the bibliography.
