Check out these tools... the sled in front is braking in an avalanche and his buddy that followed him up the hill slams into him trying to get the heck out of there. What a Cluster F***, one at a time!!! Man, that hill looks like something I would have loved to play on... just another eye opener.

This second one shows that tree's being your anchor system to prevent an avalanche is not always the case.

Ya Wayne I was thinking the same thing about being lucky - usually while riding trees your not able to see your buddies very good... if at all. I put myself in his shoes and thought what if my friends didn't see me get taken by an avy. Screwed for sure. Very Lucky Guy!!

Avy class in Grand Rapids. Who is going? I will go. Carter would have kittens watching 3 guys going up that obvious slide hill. lucky to out run, but not the norm.

No I will be coming Home after the class, as I have to be at work at 6am. Get ahold of Rick or Jacob. I know we will be staying at the Cooke City Super 8.
