An avalanche transceiver is used to find equipment or people buried underneath snow. These are also known as avalanche beacons. When a transceiver is activated it emits a low pulsed signal and this signal is used to locate the individual.

What could you do after an avalanche to repair?

After an avalanche, the first step is to ensure safety and assess the situation for any potential hazards, such as further avalanches or unstable snow. If you are trained in first aid and rescue, check for and assist any buried individuals, using avalanche transceivers and probes if available. Once the immediate danger is resolved, begin to document any damages for insurance purposes and consider restoring the affected area by removing debris and stabilizing the terrain to prevent future slides. Finally, consult with local authorities or experts about long-term mitigation strategies and recovery plans.
