Uncertainty & Desire

just go ahead and slip her some tongue, cookie.

I've never had any problems making the first move! ( And I don't like too much tongue. ) Can I stop talking about this now? Please ... for the love of God .... I'm begging!

Scotsman / Robert, thanks for the data!

Sky, you are welcome to provide data.

What is the correlation (or is there one) between party size and surviving an avalanche burial?
My uncertainty and/or tolerance is certainly affected by the number of partners I'm touring with (heuristic trap?)

To me, desire and uncertainty are entwined with consequence.

High desire and high uncertainty? - mitigate uncertainty by lowering the consequence.
High desire and moderate uncertainty- increased consequence .
High desire and low uncertainty- Ima rip the s*** outta this.

Low desire and low uncertainty- yeah, that would be August.

High risk, high uncertainty, adrenal glands fully dilated, GIV'ER!  Stimulation please!?

Maybe I ought not have had that extra espresso.

Here's the original heuristic article.

IMHO, for me... what's going on in my mind and the minds of my partners are EQUALLY important to what the snow conditions are.
In fact, the more I do this and the older I get... I'm fast coming to the conclusion that psychological aspects are MORE important than snow conditions in avoiding an avalanche.

Thanks to PNWBrit for showing me this.
I want partners who can dig like Chilean Miners and know how to use their beacon and keep me spotted. This guy had that.
He's skier aswell BTW and a damn fine one.
