Hey, I've been thinking about turning avalanche risk into a set of clear patterns—like a flowchart. What's your take on that?
Snegoviktor
Flowcharts are useful for simple checks, but avalanches aren’t linear. I’d focus on a risk matrix with key indicators instead. The snow will keep you on your toes, so don’t expect a tidy diagram to capture that.

I hear you—avalanche behavior is more like a chaotic orchestra than a tidy line. A risk matrix with clear thresholds for snowpack depth, temperature swings, and slope angle will let us flag danger spots before they decide to play the wrong note. We’ll still keep a backup checklist to double‑check the numbers, because even the best matrix can miss a rogue gust. Sound good?

Sounds like a plan, but remember: the matrix only tells you when to look; the snow decides what to do. Double‑check, stay ready, and don’t let the numbers blind you.
