Check out this Avalanche decision making maze that I worked on with the Casper Star Tribune. While it focuses on some of the more basic aspects of avalanche decision making and I always encourage folks to take some sort of formal Avy training, I hope this graphic helps people to think a little more in the back-country.

I’ve been a little slow on the blog lately, lot’s of things going on and a bunch of pieces in the wings. For now though, I’m going into the mountains for two weeks of back-country skiing and Avy education. Stay safe out there, it’s been a unstable snowpack all winter and it doesn’t look like it will be getting any better soon.
