Help!!
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 :-)

A ski tourer was trapped for over 30 minutes on Christmas eve after he was caught in a slide.
Fortunately some other skiers happened by and, hearing muffled cries for help, were able to find him thanks to his avalanche beacon....

Glad they got him. Interesting that cries for help could be heard - yet presumably he was covered - since the recuers found him by his beacon. I had thought that in avalnches buried skiers can sometimes hear those above them, but they cannot be hared by their would-be rescuers. So I had though that shouting would be a waste of energy for a buried sklier. Seems I was wrong.
