The Fundamentals Don’t change. It’s not minutia it’s the basics; it’s the foundational things that we can never forget about. Decisions are based on information. Where people get into trouble, whether you are a beginner, or you have been backcountry skiing for 30 years if you don’t take in good relevant new information to make your decision, you are hamstrung. Our job at the avalanche center is to give people good, new relevant information.
