Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

As the seson will soon be upon as and as I see there is some interest in this kind of information over on the avalanche cord thread I am posting a link to a study of French backcountry accident fatalities last season.
A Study of Backcountry Ski and Snowboard Accidents
This will be published in the American Avalanche Association's professional journal this fall.

Fascinating reading, I'll have to set aside an hour or two to go through that pdf. Thanks

Are you in Grenoble yet? Is PisteHors becoming a full time occupation?
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We are between Grenoble and Paris these days. Gigi is doing some training at the Conseil d'Etat in Paris before starting a new job in GrGr. We haven't yet found a house to live in (unfortunately I sold my old place in Pontcharra - bad move)... it is so expensive down there we may end up renting.
PisteHors isn't full time and I don't intend it to become so.

The Avalanche Review (The
American Avalanche Associatation's
professional journal) dropped onto the mat this morning.... and we made the front page!
If you look at their website, the guy in the pit with the natty bobble hat is none other than Bruce Tremper.
