TEMPERATURE RISES, AS DOES THE RISK OF AVALANCHES

The temperature rises. Great to feel the warm sun and still have snow left to ski.
But with the rise of temperature, the risk for avalanches rises as well. And rather quick!

See this stunning video of the security heli in the area "les Marecottes", just around the corner of Quatre Vallées, and the power of this controlled avalanche. (found on the Dutch site www.bergredding.nl).
