So is there any truth to the old wisdom of raising your arm directly overhead before the avalanche comes – it’s supposed to make it easier for search crews to find you because they’ see your blue, frozen fingers above the snow. But if the force of the avalanche pushes you ass over teakettle, where did that kind of advice come from?

Don’t avalanches form ice caves so you can get stuck inside with your true love? Oh, wait. That’s avalanches on soap operas.

Eek! I hope I don't have to write a scene where my characters have to be buried alive. Please don't give them any ideas. I've got enough bad things going on as it is.

But fantastic post as always.

Didn’t Braveheart have a scene where it was raining over a battle? It worked there. Why can’t it work in you manuscript?

You were right. That video was not for the faint of heart. But it would provide someone incorporating avalanche with a first hand account of the experience of being buried alive; the immediate terror, rapid breathing, the noises made by clothing while buried alive. Very intense scenes can be designed.
