Avalanche: The Sound Nobody Wants To Hear – Mountain Voices

Season 1 launched in February 2024 with Season 2 to follow later in the year.
Episode 2 of Mountain Voices focuses on the subject of avalanches and is inspired by the UIAA Safety Commission’s related to electromagnetic interference in avalanche transceivers.
Experienced American IFMGA Mountain Guides Marc Beverly (a member of the UIAA Safety Commission) and Zeb Blais provide an insight into the findings of the recent UIAA research particularly the do’s and dont’s when a transceiver is in both search and send mode. The podcast also discuss what causes an avalanche, the impact of climate change on avalanches and how our everyday electronic devices from phones to head cameras to GPS watches may interfere with transceivers.

The Avalanche Hour Podcast
In this episode, Dr. Sara Boilen sits down with Caleb to discuss the broad topic of human factors.
We explore the concept that acknowledgment and awareness of our human factors (the perception of our situation and environment, cognitive biases, and heuristic traps) may not be enough. While the concept is embraced within our community, perhaps we lack the tools and framework to deal with them as they will ultimately arise in all backcountry adventures.
Sara provides some tools to start this work for yourself and amongst your touring partners.
Problemi DELI
Questo episodio non appartiene un podcast che parla di montagna ma, prendendo spunto da un episodio di cronaca dell’estate 2023, affronta l’argomento sempre molto sensibile delle calzature con cui alcuni affrontano l’ambiente montano.
Jonathan Zenti non si “accoda” alla nutrita schiera di leoni da tastiera ed accenna ad alcune tematiche che sono ben note a chi ascolta La Dinamica.
Ovviamente è marginale che, nell’episodio, definisca La Dinamica come “uno dei suoi podcast preferiti” 😉
Se non sai chi è Jonathan Zenti, qui trovi tutte le informazioni per capire perchè essere citati da lui è l’equivalente di una medaglia.
Slide: The Avalanche Podcast
Sebbene questo podcast sia “fuori produzione” da ormai 5 anni, il suo contenuto è sempre interessante e rilevante, per chi frequenta la montagna invernale con gli sci.
L’autore affronta sia gli aspetti fisici e meccanici delle valanghe che quelli legati al fattore umano e alle dinamiche di gruppo.
L’importanza della comunicazione all’interno di un gruppo di scialpinisti che si muove su terreno di valanga è spesso sottovalutato, e in questo podcast diversi episodi sono dedicati appunto a questo aspetto critico.
