Avalanche Trip Reports

A nice addition might be to attach avalanche trip reports to your album. I attached mine and here are a couple others I spotted:

If it is not specifically French

then maybe http://www.avalanche.org/ should be included as a N American link, and german-language site http://www.lawine.org/ as another European umbrella link, and perhaps http://www.geogr.msu.ru/avalanche/ as a Russian-language link
