Dragons in the snow. 28 Humanities about avalanches. Power E.

“Dragons in the Snow” - at the same time, an ode to nature and a warning to those who chose the mountains with a place of realization of their skills.

Ed Pauer introduces the reader into a difficult world of predicting avalanches and rescue operations. For 28 stories, the author introduces us to wonderful people, for whom the study of avalanches is a matter of life, and shares their stories with us, and also tells about the tragedies - both that happened and those that have almost occurred. Admiration for wildlife is replaced by trepidation before the power of the elements, the horror of snow captivity - the joy of salvation, the grief of losses - a stubborn desire to survive and return to the mountains.

“Dragons in the snow” - not just a series of exciting stories. With his book, Ed Pauer attracts attention to the problems of avalanche safety, which is vital for everyone who is associated with mountains and freeride.
