a member of our group is concerned that I don't have a locator beacon. Any thoughts or input?


Yes. One more thought: get an avalanche beacon! Every member of your group should have one, shovels and do several drills ahead of time to practice using them. It's still winter out there.

None of the views expressed here in any way represent those of the unidentified agency that I work for or, often, reality. It's just me, fired up by coffee and powerful prose.
