[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was there no warning? Why don't they have some kind of helmet that creates a large balloon of oxygen around them and a beacon that starts emitting signal? Like an airtag or something? [/quote] There are some devices that have helped a bit, but it’s more the weight of everything tumbling at you at over 100 miles an hour. You are crushed to deaths before you’d run out of oxygen. NYT has a good interactive story on how avalanches work today. Sadly someone I went to college with is one of the killed. [/quote]
