A car’s airbags are designed to absorb impact and protect passengers during a crash—and need to inflate immediately on impact. But the airbags that skiers wear to avoid being buried in an avalanche don’t necessarily need to inflate as fast. So Black Diamond’s new JetForce backpack uses a fan instead of compressed air which means not only can you try it out and practice beforehand, it’s also cheap and easy to reset.

This is the stuff from our lives that we either own and never want to let go, or that we’ve been testing recently and are totally enamored with.

That pristine powder hidden between crags at the summit is both your best friend and your worst enemy. It’s the avalanche chute, and it can kill you if you’re not prepared.

Whether you’re searching for powder bowls or the elusive snow goose, this gear will help you know the unknown.
