NZ Slide
Deltaone1 replied to HelperElfMissy's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
its silly, the avalanche happened at 5pm! they were 1km out of bounds at 5pm, by 5pm the sun is going down and its getting dark! not only did they put them selfs at risk but they put all the rescuers at risk! they didnt find him until after 7, by 7 its pitch black! very stupid stuff! people should learn to read the signs and use common sense! -

Australia / NZ season
