Good luck, I've been fighting this ever since I first started educating myself about Avalanches,1998 when I took my Level 1 and 2. I've been told by Pro Ski Patrol the reason why the metric method is used,they stay in constant contact with Europe Countries and exchange information alot so it's easier to communicate with each other (which I don't buy that excuse at all). One thing I have learned about metric is converting a metric reading on my Avalanche Transceiver over to feet.You multiple 3.3 times whatever the number is and your answer is what you get and that's in feet.---And to make it more easier,drop the point 3 and just use the 1st number,3, take the number 3 times 50 well say, 3 times 5 is 115 which will give you a ball park idea how far away,115 feet.Iv'e been using this method since 1998, it's all a pain in the ear but we don't have much choice.
