There really is no way to prepare for an avalanche other than staying away from areas where they occur. One way to tell is to look at a slope on a mountain if you are below tree line and see if there are any trees. If you see an area covered in snow and devoid of trees, there is a good chance that an avalanche occurred there in the past, and may happen again in the future. Be very cautious in such areas if you are hiking through.

∙ 14y agoit depends on the conditions and your equipment. if you are wearing thick insulations allover and have got some tools to pick your way out of a pile of snow whithout getting frostbite, then i'd say about 60%. if not, i'd say 0% It also depends on the size of the avalanche, where you get caught in it, how far from you are from emergency services, and the length of the slope it is on. If you have the right equipment, then you are more likely to live.
