Or out of bounds stuff ,
Locater = find body easier , Doesn't mean their alive though !
Take necessary training , all hypothetical .
Try to imagine a time when you were traumatized and then think of how different you function in that condition . Now add on the fact your first trying to find your friends , and then to dig them out !
Never go alone , more is better .
Test pits , abs , transponder , shovel , probes , sat phone or that cool spot unit .
If any doubts don't do it , like was said already .
All good advice here .
Remember you only have like four minutes without air . pretend your an ostrich and stick your head in the snow until you cant anymore and you'll never take it for granted (AIR )
But you can't beat untouched pow thats waist deep .
