There seems to be only a certain amount of avalanche knowledge one person can get - Throttle Decisions, paying attention all the experts, Avy Bulletins, years of experience etc - one thing that is clear - danger lurks most everywhere in the mountains. Listening to the experts it is obvious that in one day (and even in one climb) the conditions change so much that one has to pay more time to evaluation than to riding. I carry more survival stuff than a person probably should but there is a point where paranoia should take a back seat to enjoying the sport we chose as our passion.
