My understanding for these tests is that they can’t rule out an avalanche but rather if they fail then an avalanche is likely.
In other words, just because it passes the avalanche test doesn’t mean it’s safe to ski. Is that right?

Yes. It's never 100%. It's a large area and sampling doesn't cover everything.
