A tree well is a dangerous void or area of loose snow around the trunk of a tree which is surrounded by deep snow. A person, especially a skier or snowboarder, can easily fall into this well, possibly causing serious injury or death.  2, record 2, English, - tree%20well

... deep depressions(“tree wells”) in the snow beneath the trees on slopes used for helicopter skiing can be a serious hazard to heli-skiers... ;a number of heli-skiing fatalities have occurred when heli-skiers have fallen into tree wells.  3, record 2, English, - tree%20well

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Tree wells are encountered in off-piste or ungroomed trails and on ungroomed piste boundaries. The risk of encountering a tree well is greatest during and immediately following a heavy snowstorm. Low hanging branches can further contribute to forming a tree well, as they efficiently shelter the area surrounding the trunk. Wells have been observed to be as deep as 20 feet. Wells can also occur near rocks and along streams.  2, record 2, English, - tree%20well

En français, il ne semble pas y avoir de terminologie établie pour désigner ce type de trou. On trouve : dépression en aval des arbres, dépression à la base des arbres, puits d'arbre, fosse, crevasse, cavité, puits d'aération, tree well - ces espaces vides de neige que l'on trouve au pied des sapins, trou, poche d'air, etc. Les termes dépression, fosse, cavité, puits, trou, semblent tous être acceptables pour décrire ce type de «trou». Nous avons cependant adopté le terme «trou de neige» qui selon les contextes relevés, semble désigner n'importe quel trou dans la neige, naturel ou creusé. Il peut servir d'abri, à faire des tests, et peut être parfois à l'origine d'accident -par exemple, si un raquetteur tombe dedans, etc. Selon le contexte et afin d'éviter toute ambiguité, il faudrait, si nécessaire, préciser à quel endroit se trouve ce «trou» et quelle en est la composition.  1, record 2, French, - trou%20de%20neige%20%C3%A0%20la%20base%20des%20arbres

Tourism that provides opportunities for physical exertion through hard and soft activities [and which] may, but not always, embrace ecotourism practices.  2, record 4, English, - adventure%20tourism

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Eco-tourism and adventure tourism are closely aligned but they are often differentiated in two ways. One difference is the degree of risk involved in the activities. Many people, for example, would call a snowboarding holiday more of an adventure than an eco-tourism experience because of the higher degree of risk. Another distinction is linked to the level of motorized transportation involved. Adventure tourism may make use of vehicles such as snowmobiles or helicopters for heli-skiing. While these are common distinctions, there are no hard rules for differentiating the two. Some activities could be labeled as adventure tourism, eco-tourism, recreation and outdoor pursuits at the same time. Indeed, some people may view biking through the mountains as adventure tourism while others might call it eco-tourism because they are out in nature enjoying the spring wildflowers.  3, record 4, English, - adventure%20tourism

Le tourisme d'aventure est une forme de tourisme en région éloignée, sauvage ou dans un milieu inusité, qui peut entraîner un contact avec les populations locales, qui est associé à un certain degré de danger et qui exige un effort physique et des moyens de locomotion non traditionnels. Il existe deux types de tourisme d'aventure : l'aventure dure et l'aventure douce. Le tourisme d'aventure est en vogue de nos jours. Toutefois, il est encore difficile de s'entendre sur sa définition. D'abord considéré comme un type de tourisme quelque peu dangereux et réservé aux intrépides aventuriers, il s'applique maintenant à un tourisme plus facile d'accès et qui, bien que pratiqué en milieu naturel, peut prendre forme à proximité des villes. En effet, les citadins au confort douillet recherchent des sensations fortes qu'ils trouveront en pratiquant des activités de plein air dans des milieux inusités. Cette catégorie comprend neuf activités : baignade, canyoning, deltaplane, escalade, parapente, planche à voile, rafting, traîneau à chiens, vélo de montagne.  2, record 4, French, - tourisme%20d%27aventure

El turismo de aventura es una motivación turística que a su vez tiene diferentes manifestaciones, algunas de ellas muy populares desde hace muchos años, antes de que se incluyeran en este concepto: alpinismo, turismo cinegético, buceo marino y lacustre, deslizamiento en los rápidos, y muchos otros que pueden entrar en este particular modo de hacer turismo, que también podrían clasificarse como turismo deportivo activo.  3, record 4, Spanish, - turismo%20de%20aventura
