Dont be overwhelmed by the multiple burials functions on your transceivers. Rather, keep it simple. In most cases of a multiple burial scenario, start by digging out the victim until you can get to their airway, make sure they are breathing, and TURN OFF their transceiver. Your transceiver in search mode will then take you to the next signal. Remember: your transceiver will always bring you to the closest signal. Use your last-seen points to begin, and narrow the search from there.
BCA co-founder Bruce Edgerly suggests you learn how to conduct a multiple burial search both ways: by using the functions on your transceiver, AND by learning how to turn off your partners transceivers.
