not sure about Aust, but in Canada definitely carry, practise, use everything when skiing. Never really bothered when ice climbing, but it was easier to avoid avalanche-prone climbs, or climb them after they slid & before new snow. It would be inviting certain death not be educated re avalanche safety.
Digital transceivers are easier to use but the range is generally less. Most newer transceivers have both analogue & digital antennas.
Edit: no point carrying the gear if you don't know how to use it FAST. ie you really have to practise otherwise you may as well not carry it. |
