It said that if you are not found in teh first 15 minutes of an avalanche you are likely to die from asphyxiation (the white death)

If this is the case, what is the point of the RECCO system etc because by the time the boys & girls are out with their scanners they have not made it?

Think I may post this in the avalanches thread as it interests me :thumbup:
