KRUSTY 2 Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Would have been a scary ride for the people on the lift when the avalanche hit it.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJXVfb-byhc Link to post Share on other sites

CnnmnSchnpps 0 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Apparently, the lifties stopped people from getting on the last few chairs, luckily. The 41 people stuck on the chairs up higher were evac'ed by heli. Lots of wet snow slides recently due to abnormally high temps.

klingon 10 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Amazing I think I would be less chilled than the people in the video! Link to post Share on other sites
Jynxx 4 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 See what I mean when I say that it´s important to know what´s under the snow ! You can dig a snow pit and discuss which layer can slide, but... missing out on something, aren´t we? Grassy hill are easier to slide, and where do you get that mostly? On piste and slack. Ever wonder why some ski-jo leaves tree stumps and logs along the lift line? It´s not like they don´t want you to go there. Link to post Share on other sites
