- In the case of an avalanche, it’s critical to know how to use your rescue gear efficiently. Here, we present the basics to a proper beacon search, as well as the most efficient probing and shoveling techniques with ski patroller and avalanche educator Harry Hamlin. Before you head out, take a professional avalanche course to gain the in-field skills and knowledge you need.

Thank you for the valuable infromation!
Stay safe and have fun!
Awesome vid team
Outstanding thanks
Speaking as a newbie, this seemed informative, any reason it's unlisted?
If he was first nations this would be on the trending page
Where can I find documentation on the motivation for the 1.5 X depth of victim for where to start digging? Why would I not just start digging right where my probe is?
start digging slightly downslope of the subject so it makes it easier to shovel snow out and away and you have an area to place subject..
Thanks for the video! Probably best not to phrase as “my victim” though! 😁
Could the victim use the probe to get air and hint at the location?
Ask the authorities on avalanche, such as AIARE - Avalanche Institute for Avalanche Research & Education.
When you are buried in an avalanche, it is like being molded into concrete. This would mean that the person probing would have to get the probe right in the mouth of the victim. Other than that, most deaths are caused by asphyxia, not suffocation. Even dense avalanche debris is about 60-70% air, most victims die from rebreathing their own carbon dioxide so it is unlikely a probe would be much help. There are products where you can exhale your carbon dioxide into your bag that increase survivability when buried and also avalanche bags that create a pocket of air by deflating when you are buried.
Please don't do bracketing like this guy. That is very unsafe. Do not rush it be patient, don't skip to left and right. Mark the snow and slowly move your beacon left or right, and up or down. Most rescues fail at this point!
It's a demo bud...
IMHO, waste of time to probe if you've centered the beacon, just dig like mad, that wasted time could be life
Knowing the depth is pretty useful, especially on a steeper slope.
I do believe in using the probe but at the same time the transceiver "will"tell you how deep the buried transceiver is.
Take the extra 10 seconds to verify you are digging in the right spot. Never know if you’re wasting time with a beacon that got torn off, an inaccurate reading, or just digging slightly off.
Who doesn’t know how to us a beacon!?!?! Also, why not talk about inflatable vests...which are THE BEST single decision one can make to save their own life without anyone else needing to be there to assist.
In larger avalanches you can still be buried when wearing an ABS. Shallower avalanches are what they’re perfect for when you’re almost floating along the top of the sluff because you have it on and then you will settle just below the top layer most of the time.
This is such a dumb comment, People like you should never be out with anyone in the BC. AND not everyone can afford $1500 backpack dummy
Who can’t spell “use”?!
