L'expression «recherche et sauvetage» [...], pour les adeptes de haute montagne, [...] évoque deux types de sauvetage. Le premier se rapporte aux services de sauvetage professionnel, aussi connus sous le nom de recherche et sauvetage organisé, et le deuxième fait référence à la capacité d'agir d'un groupe en situation d'avalanche, que l'on appelle autosauvetage. 3, record 1, French, - recherche%20et%20sauvetage%20en%20avalanche

Recherches et secours en avalanches. [...] en dépit de toutes les précautions prises, nul ne peut se dire à l'abri des avalanches. Il est donc important de savoir comment localiser une personne ensevelie sous une avalanche et comment organiser les secours avec le maximum de rapidité et d'efficacité, car les chances de survie pour une personne ensevelie sous une avalanche décroissent très vite. 2, record 1, French, - recherche%20et%20sauvetage%20en%20avalanche
