LectureTip | SLF AvaLounge 14.3. 7 pm

No risk, no fun?

03/13/2023

PowderGuide

The SLF avalanche warning service regularly explains various aspects of avalanche prevention in the "AvaLounge". Another exciting livestream will take place tomorrow (14 March). Topic: No risk, no fun - is there anything to it?

What exactly does "risk" actually mean during ski tours and when freeriding? How can you reduce it? And is it really no fun without risk? SLF avalanche warning experts Beni, Kurt and Jürg will be discussing this tomorrow in the AvaLounge livestream.

In the "AvaLounge", SLF avalanche warning experts discuss various avalanche topics at irregular intervals. Questions from the public are also answered in the chat, giving you the opportunity to exchange ideas directly with the experts. Here are the previous AvaLounge talks to look up.

If you don't have any plans for tomorrow (Tuesday, 14 March), you're sure to find an exciting evening programme here!

When? 7 pm, 14 March 2023

The people behind the article

Written by

PowderGuide

In Davos zu Hause, wo andere Urlaub machen und ich gelegentlich vergesse, wie schön es eigentlich ist. Am liebsten bin ich draussen in den Bergen unterwegs, auf Ski, am Fels, oder irgendwo dazwischen aber auf jeden Fall mit der Kamera im Gepäck. Als Fotograf und Videograf habe ich meine Leidenschaft für Bilder und Geschichten zum Beruf gemacht. Und dann wäre da PowderGuide: ein Herzensprojekt mit einem grossartigen Team, einer begeisterten Community und der erstaunlichen Fähigkeit, jede noch so grosse Lücke im Kalender mit tollen Inhalten zu füllen 🌞

SLF Survey | Intermediate stages in the Bulletin

03/06/2023 • PowderGuide

Since this winter, the SLF has categorised the danger levels with intermediate levels. What do you think? The Swiss Avalanche Warning Service would like to know, and is asking the target group of ski tourers and freeriders to complete a short questionnaire.
ReadingTip | SLF Winter Report 21/22

01/10/2023 • PowderGuide

As every year, the SLF Winter Report provides a comprehensive review of the past snow and avalanche season in the Swiss Alps. The weather conditions and the development of the snow cover are presented in detail. Avalanche accidents in the 21/22 season are listed in tabular form, and some selected accidents are analysed in more detail.
SLF: From 22/23 intermediate stages in the bulletin

11/28/2022 • Lea Hartl

What experienced skiers could more or less reliably glean from the text of the bulletin is now put into concrete figures. From this season onwards, the SLF will use three intermediate levels for the avalanche danger levels moderate, considerable, large and very large. For level 3, for example, a 3, 3= or 3+ is given in addition to the "whole" level (3, considerable). 3- is closer to 2, 3= is "neutral" and 3+ is closer to 4.
