Who is this Rasmussen you speak of? I remember a looonnggg time ago there was a man named Rasmussen who started riding a Ski Doo, then he was never heard from again. Couldn't be the same guy...or could it?

 

[PJ-Hunter]

Nope youve got him mistaken with the other Rasmussen, this is some other guy.

Yeah .. .that Rasmussen was killed in a hang glider accident years ago down in old Mexico. . .. . . . .. . . .... . .or was it a knife fight in Tijuana . ..one o' them . . ..

.. .and I took Mike's class last nite here in Iowa. ...much thanks to him for taking a whole lotta time out of his life to bring all of us good information and teaching how to increase the odds of surviving one of those catastrophic days in the back country. .

 

[joshkoltes]

It just goes to doors website, and no avy info available
