of the wearer, even if deployed correctly. EVERY AVALANCHE HAS
THE POTENTIAL TO KILL, regardless of the safety equipment
used or whether the user is buried. Do not take greater risks than you
would if you were not wearing the avalanche airbag.

professional or have the proper training and experience to
be able to safely evaluate terrain, mountain conditions, and
