Avalanches are a serious risk in mountain environments, but you can reduce the danger by following key safety measures. Here’s how to stay safe:
Before You Go
1. Check Avalanche Forecasts – Always check the local avalanche bulletin for current conditions. Websites and apps like Avalanche.org or regional services provide updated reports.
2. Understand Avalanche Terrain – Avoid steep slopes (30-45 degrees), especially after heavy snowfall or rapid temperature changes. Watch for convex slopes, cornices, and terrain traps like gullies.
3. Take an Avalanche Safety Course – Learn how to assess risk, read terrain, and use rescue equipment properly. A certified course can be lifesaving.
4. Carry Essential Gear – Always have:
• Avalanche beacon (transceiver) – helps rescuers locate you
• Probe – for pinpointing a buried person
• Shovel – for digging out a buried person
• Airbag Backpack (if possible) – can help you stay on the surface during an avalanche
5. Travel with a Group – Never go alone, and make sure your group knows how to use avalanche gear.
While on the Mountain
1. Assess the Snowpack – Look for warning signs like recent avalanche activity, cracking sounds, or “whumpfing” noises from collapsing snow layers.
2. Test Slopes Before Committing – Use small test slopes to check snow stability before heading onto bigger terrain.
3. Spread Out When Crossing Avalanche Terrain – If traveling in a group, cross one at a time to reduce risk.
4. Avoid Triggers – Stay off steep, unstable slopes, especially after fresh snowfall, warming temperatures, or strong winds.
If an Avalanche Starts
1. Try to Escape – If possible, move to the side of the slide path or grab onto a tree or rock.
2. Deploy Your Airbag (if you have one) – This can help you stay near the surface.
3. Swim and Keep Your Head Up – Try to “swim” to stay on top of the snow and keep your mouth above the surface.
4. Create an Air Pocket – If burie

Everest. The ridge was covered in soft snow, with many unstable cornices and rocky sections hidden under the snow. Even the weather station near the summit was partly buried in snow.
While descending after crossing the Hillary Step, a cornice suddenly collapsed just a few meters ahead of the climbers. Another fragile cornice was directly beneath their feet, making the situation extremely dangerous.
Four climbers were almost swept away by the collapse but managed to save themselves by staying clipped to the fixed rope. Sadly, two climbers went missing and have not been found. Heavy traffic on the fixed lines made it impossible to move forward.
The delay caused serious risks as many climbers were running out of oxygen. To help, a new route had to be created so climbers could start descending again.
Slowly, the trattic began to clear.
The climbers later rested at Camp 3 and returned to Base Camp on May 22.
This incident shows just how dangerous Everest can be, with unstable snow formations, crowded routes, and unpredictable conditions threatening even the most prepared climbers.
