Here's a first hand account of a skier caught in an Avy, full burial, and his partner finding and rescuing him. It's a sobering read with many lessons to be learned.
If you travel in avy terrain and carry a beacon, shovel, probe - practice, practice, practice. Seconds count and knowing what to do and how to do it quickly is the only thing that's going to save lives.
