Encounters in Avalanche Country explores the history of mountain communities in the US and Canadian Mountain West as they faced the deadly threat of avalanches over more than a century. Through compelling stories of survival and social change, the book examines how residents, industries, and legal systems responded to natural disasters amidst rapid industrialization and environmental challenges. Written in an engaging style, it offers a unique perspective on the region’s history of risk, resilience, and cooperation.
