SLC Snowshow & Dinner

[ccpowder]

Yep, went to Gecko's, Sky box was packed!! Was good to meet everyone that was there....

Christopher - Thought about the text tree idea a little more. I think it is a bad idea, and this is why:

1. If this is an avalanche, the last thing you want is people there with an emotional attachment, in a dangerous area, not trained to handle the situation. Also, by time the message goes out, the time for rescue has passed.

2. If it is someone lost, same reasoning applies. You don't want people up looking that don't have training or proper gear.

Seemed like a good idea, but I think rescues need to be left to the trained individuals without any emotional attachment.

CCpowder- after reading your post and thinking about it......I wholly agree!
I do still think it a very good idea to have at least one person in your group that has a PLB (personal locating beacon) like the SPOT device. This way you can communicate via messaging to a few very close friends that you are indeed ok or may need a little help not requiring S & R.
Then there is always the panic button that will send in the troops right away!

Was great to meet you and the others BTW!

Corey...sometimes you do make some sense!

Too bad the BYU and Utah games were all on tonight. Seems like everyone went different directions . Hope everyone had a good night.

Go Cougars! Got can't handle team speed?

Utes...squeeeek! But, a win is a win!

Hope that everyone has a good time. Not feeling well enough to make it and don't want to get anyone else ill.

I was in the same boat as you.... pretty bummed I missed the show this year
