Avalanches

Snowmobilers should always be properly

trained and equipped before traveling in

mountainous terrain:

• Take an avalanche class

• Travel with experienced people

• Travel on designated trails

• Make sure each person is equipped

with a shovel, probe and avalanche

beacon.

You don’t have to be snowmobiling on a slope for an avalanche to

occur. Be aware that all of the snow is connected. You may be riding on

a flat slope or snow covered road, but if the snowpack above is unstable

enough you can trigger an avalanche on a steeper slope above you.

Always be aware of snow conditions above you as you travel in moun-

tainous terrain.

Before riding in mountainous terrain, call or log on to your local ava-

lanche advisory to get current weather and snow stability information.

For more information about avalanche training and avalanche condi-

tions, contact local law enforcement in your area, or visit the American

and Canadian online avalanche centers at www.avalanche.org.
