Hi Peri,

Thanks for the link and the content. I really enjoyed surfing through it, especially the human factor article. It's so true that there are many factors that effect our judgement when making decisions in the backcountry. Having a list of common scenarios and common heuristic traps as you put it, I think is a great idea. It's a quick checklist you can go through mentally to see if you're making an objective decision, or if your allowing your judgement to be influenced through one of these common mistakes.

After you've objectively identified the risks involved, I also really identify with the part of the article relating to identifying your individual level of acceptable risk and the group's level of acceptable risk to see whether the risk at hand falls into that range of acceptance. That's such an important piece of it, especially if you're in a leadership role, to recognize that acceptable risk is different for everyone.

Good read! Looking forward to more.

Cheers,
David

thanks for the compliments!

did you use a smartphone or tablet? if so, did you guys have any issue reading it?

about the human factor article, I think it's a great article. The writer has 22 years of experience in avalanche forecasting, I work with her and she has lots of knowledge about it, and lately she has been focusing in such an important thing as the human factor.

We thought it could be very interesting for the splitboarder community to include this article, so I'm glad you liked it!

do not hesitate to inform me if there's anything you don't like about the magazine, or something that doesn't work.

Who would I get into contact with about sending in photos?

Hi Jerms,

I sent you a PM with the contact info!
