I have gone off piste with no shovels and safety equipment, but I've always had someone with me! And before i've gone, i always made sure I've checked the area as well as i can! Skiing off piste between pistes thats a tough one, im sure people will say you need all the shovels transceicers, But i do it all the time! I guess, get as much local knowledge as possible

I've just remembered theres a video on youtube of an avalanche in france, I'm sure its been put on here before but will put it up, Also i think this avalanche was to do with warm weather and takes out the Chair lift!

I have heard blasting before, and hvae come across a few closed piste's in my time, Must be for this reason! |

I would hope so. I've had a few amazing days of powder on a piste and a few times i have thought "i wonder if an avalanche could happen here"

What about skiing on a piste that has lots of fresh pow on it, surely this is just as dangerous as going off piste?
