Crews Use Explosives to Reduce Avalanche Risk
Mar 6, 2014
NBC News
Avalanche control is a critical safety practice in mountain regions where heavy snowfall can turn slopes unstable without warning. By triggering small controlled slides before conditions worsen operators can reduce the risk of large destructive avalanches that would otherwise release naturally during storms or sudden temperature changes. One of the most effective methods involves the use of artillery to deliver explosive force precisely onto known avalanche paths. This allows teams to release un

Edu Coore on Instagram: "Some ski resorts use **real artillery to trigger controlled avalanches** as a safety measure to prevent dangerous, natural avalanches from occurring unexpectedly. This method, known as **avalanche control or avalanche mitigation**, involves firing artillery shells, explosives, or gas-powered devices at unstable snow layers on mountain slopes after heavy snowfall. The explosions deliberately release small, controlled avalanches under supervised conditions, reducing the ri

Remote Avalanche Control System Gazex is a remote avalanche control system (RACS) based on exploding a propane/oxygen gas mixture inside an open metal tube. This reference solution for preventive control consists of exploders (tubes) positioned in avalanche-starting areas and connected by pipelines to a central gas unit (shelter or mini-shelter).
