I watched it as well. It was good session. They mentioned 147 cases of people got into avalanche in that a single week, did not get was it in whole Alpes or Swiss only.
So yes, its been very bad beginning of the season and after all that sand its going to be even worse.
Ive seen they recorded the meeting, not sure if they are going to share it.

Air Glaciers is Swiss based and covers Valais and Central CH only I think? The story of their founding is well worth a read:

I'm sure it's been done but it would be interesting to see a plot of deaths along that curve. With the numbers of guided groups being taken I wonder if there would be a right side bias.

One of the interesting comments during the session was the guide saying that this year is crazy in that very experienced, comparatively low risk people are getting caught. It was like, throw out all your past assumptions about safe spots, and assume anything could go (and go big). It’s fair to say they were all quite freaked out about this season
