Tip of the week #4

How to survive a whiteout/bad visibility on the slopes this season!

When visibility is poor on the slopes, it’s not just about the nerves, you just cannot see where you are going, it can be dangerous and frightening.

ALWAYS REMEMBER: That the piste poles on the right hand side of the piste all have orange tips. So stay close and move down from one to the next, keeping to the left of these “orange” poles. If you stay to the left of the right side poles you will ALWAYS be on the piste. How do you think the experienced appear so calm, it’s not easy for anyone in poor visibility.
