Avalanche Beacon - Very Best Opportunity for Rescue

When you travel in avalanche terrain, either by skis, snowboard, snowshoes, or snowmobile, an avalanche beacon is an essential element of your gear. A beacon isn't a magic shield which is going to automatically protect you, but employed correctly it can greatly boost your chances of being found alive. Wearing a beacon does not guarantee your safety or replace good backcountry skills. It just means that you'll be less complicated to locate if you do get buried. Without good backcountry expertise and understanding of route choice in avalanche terrain you are asking to turn into a statistic. If that worst case scenario takes place and you are buried in an avalanche your best possibility of being located alive is by a companion with an avalanche beacon who knows how to use it.

An avalanche beacon is one of those devices that you need to know the way to use very very well and work with often to become proficient with. Its a tool that should be as much a element of one's backcountry gear as your goggles or gloves. Its also one of those tools you hope you never ever have to implement since if you're utilizing your beacon it indicates that someone's life, maybe your own, is at stake.

Yes, backcountry search and rescue teams do respond, but they're not on the scene. My dog's nose is faster than any human doing a beacon search, but it takes us time to get to a scene. Time for us to become notified and to travel to the scene. That's time you and your companion do not have. So don't plan on the specialists to come and get you, prepare to become your own rescue team.

Avalanche beacons have evolved over the years with technology that have made them simpler than ever for use by the general public. As the backcountry has developed into being increasingly more accessible so has the equipment required to stay alive in it. Hi-tech beacons are less complicated to utilize, but they still need to be practiced with on a routine basis so your capabilities keep sharp. Do beacon drills at home in the backyard, around the mountain, wherever you get a opportunity.

Bury an avalanche beacon in a plastic bag and send your companion to discover it. Time each other, make it enjoyable and make it challenging. Don't depend on engineering or the professionals to do all the work in an emergency!
