Snow Safety Protocols

Snow safety protocols involve preparing before venturing into snowy areas by checking weather forecasts, wearing appropriate layered clothing, and carrying essential gear like a map, compass, and emergency supplies. While outdoors, stay on marked trails, avoid risky slopes, and be aware of avalanche signs such as recent heavy snowfall or cracking snow layers. Keep communication devices charged and inform someone of your plans. In case of emergency, stay calm, conserve energy, and seek shelter or assist others if needed. These protocols help prevent accidents and ensure safety during snow-covered conditions.
