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 :-)

Skiers survive two avalanches within minutes
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

In an extraordinary escape, two off-piste skiers survived two consecutive avalanches this week in a wilderness area in Montana. The two men were skiing off-piste in the Snowbowl Ski Area on Wednesday when the first avalanche started 400 feet above them. It buried one man up to his neck, but his companion dug him out and both were shaken but unhurt. They then began to trek to safety when a second avalanche started 500 feet above them....The snow swept them down the mountainside. Both men were able to free their arms and dig themselves out, and injured and bleeding, hiked through deep snow with no equipment for nearly 5 hours until found by emergency responders. The men had been well equipped for the conditions, carrying shovels and emergency transponders, and are skilled in the advanced techniques. Before going off-piste, they had dug pits in the snow to test its stability and assess the avalanche risk.
