The Avalanche Handbook
The Avalanche Handbook
This revised third edition—written by David McClung and Peter Schaerer for The Mountaineers—is designed to serve as a reference on avalanches. Can be used as a text for NSP’s Level II Avalanche Course or to supplement Avalanche Safety for Skiers and Climbers. One of the strengths of this text is its descriptions of the physical properties of snow—required knowledge for understanding avalanche formation, movement, and effects.
