    A rescuer is closing in on a buried avalanche victim using a transceiver that reads 10m distance. They must target and recover the burial using probing and digging with one helper. The rescuer should have their helper probe in a triangle pattern around the strongest signal while they continue narrowing down the location using the transceiver readings. Once the probe indicates snow that feels different, they should carefully dig with their helper to expose and extract the victim.
