This is a little article I've just written about the bad season that French mountain guiding has suffered and their deliberations about what is to be done in future. A number of the accidents were to guides skiing with friends not clients.

Thanks..enjoyed the read..

Only comment is in the recommendation of one guide to two clients in technical terrain. Sounds great. Touring ...1:4.

Other than a couple of unlucky events that are strictly probability based, it looks like the common thread in most of these accidents was the "human factor", willingness to take risk.

More comments on this, David?
