One can never have enough awareness. If you haven't seen this already this was stressful just watching and listening.

I hope for a safe riding season no matter who you are or where you go.

Be safe!

That was one of the most disturbing video's I've ever seen. I've been on the digging side before and WOW that brings back memories. I'm glad it was a happy ending like mine.

All I can say is WOW! This just brought back thoughts of the Valdez avy during the races last spring. I knew it wouldn't stay out of my head long.

 

[AKboondocker]

Wow...I may get an avalung on top of my ABS pack. Very scary indeed.

Gnarly, it goes to show you how important it is to have training not just for your self but everyone in your group. That could have happened very easily at Turny with the number of people out there and the number of people riding above each other without notice.

Thanks for this great link. That was a really sobering reminder of what can happen. A definite must watch for anyone who likes to play in the deep snow. Thanks again.
