Waterproof pants are another story. Your pants need to be really waterproof. Few things suck more that getting on a chair and sitting in a pile of slush if your pants are not waterproof.
Just to keep it interesting, I'm going to disagree with much of the advice on this thread.
Yes, you're right. If you don't know what recco is already, you better stay away from places where there are risks of avalanches.
Unlike operating a transceiver, which requires education and practice, there is no learning curve for use of the RECCO reflector. It is integrated into commercially available gear by the manufacturer and therefore requires no additional investment by the on-hill user. The reflector can be washed without damage and will not interfere with any electronic device since it does not transmit any sort of signal. And, with only a passive role to play in the rescue, the RECCO reflector does not compete with other search methods and therefore functions as an effective complement to–but not a replacement for–wearing a transceiver.
