Recommendations for individuals outside secured areas are especially aimed at snow sports enthusiasts away from the ski runs, for example freeriders, backcountry skiers, snowshoe hikers, ice climbers and mountaineers. 'Conditions' refers solely to avalanche danger, not to the amount of snow, snow conditions (powder snow, breakable crust) or weather conditions (fog, storm) even if these may sometimes pose a potential danger. 'Experience' always means experience in assessing the avalanche danger. This is best acquired under expert guidance, e.g. on avalanche courses or on guided backcountry tours or off-piste activities.
