Overwhelmed by the technical information on BeaconReviews.com? Relax! Here is the
basic information you need to know:
| 1 |
Understand the basics of how avalanche transceivers
help you survive. |
| 2 |
Buy a good transceiver (anything
ranked five stars). You can read the test
conclusions. |
| 3 |
To find a buried victim, switch your digital transceiver to Search and follow
the direction indicator until
the shortest distance is displayed. (Details here.) |
| 4 |
When you reach the shortest distance, probe to
locate the victim. Then dig with your shovel. |
| 5 |
Take an avalanche class. Practice the above at least monthly throughout
the winter. Make sure your partners practice, too! |
