Nice write about Aaron in Outside magazine.

I've got a 1st year 66 and love it. No probs with it so far but I'm an old fart so not as hard on gear as I used to be since the resulting injuries don't heal as fast...

First summer I rode 4 or...

Nevermind - found it:

Anyone hear any details on the slide Sunday? Heard he got pretty jacked up, but not buried...

We used to call that 'area fam'. Aka fee skiing on the clock in uni out of area. In the late 80's we'd run laps through the East Vail Chutes and have someone pick us up in one of the VA rigs. Good...

Same, my bad, missed the other post. Lo siento.

Hoping for a miracle, praying for friends and fam.

The WC trollers have a tremendous amount of expertise. To lose 2 from that small community in 3.5 years is a tough hit for sure. It is also indicative of the fact that it can happen to anyone,...

Hopefully the criminal prosecution push runs out of steam quickly. Already more than enough anguish to go around.

Negligent manslaughter at worst, probably reckless endangerment.

That is awesome!

Civil suit will be forthcoming unless the cornice flippers are essentially judgement proof.

"Avalanche. Stay back. "

Awesome.

If those pukes were truly core they would super glue some Velcro to their hammies, sew some Velcro inside their pants and let 'em droop. Or sag, or whatever the hell they call it. Suspenders are so...

Absurd! Absolutely fantastic.

Terrible tragedy for these men, their travel companions, friends, families and local community.

As you youngins say - vibes to all.

I do believe she may have climaxed...

With all of the coverage they have given to the HIGH avi danger there is no way he could have missed it - it's been on every newscast and weather forecast for days.

Sad lesson to learn.

Brappers. One buried, not seriously injured.

Plenty of folks will be playing Russian Roulette in the next day or 2...hope it works out for them.

Body recovered a short time ago.

Tough conditions to be out there if you don't know what you are doing and aren't prepared.

They don't legally have to post anything - VRC is a private company,not a government entity. They post jobs as a matter of policy and to avoid the appearance of impropriety and discrimination.

Winning!

Great photos.

No real surprises there.

There will be a full report. Be patient.

Wildman, your bud is very fortunate. Hope he is ok in the melon, that could rattle a guy...

Oof. I had just been wondering what the before and after comparison would look like...

1000 people at the celebration of Tony's life last night. 3 generations of skiers, from Original Pete's contemporaries, friends and family of Tony's folks and Tony's friends and their families.

That is awesome!

My couches have the exact same 0 - 5 profile re dog hair. It seems like a persistent weak layer, however, there has been no change in that layer for years and no demonstrated...

Don't bet on it.

Peepers don't get a lot of love, least they used to didn't...

That is correct.

Wonder if he held on this camera or if it got churned into the slide. Be interesting to see what shows up at 8 frames a second.

In the 90's I was on the recovery of the young man in Mushroom Bowl...

Oof.

Wonder if it was the same photog that was in the slide?

I apologize for my dig at Rebecca, it was based on my frustration with the article and upset at the loss of Tony. I've known Circle and Teri, Tony's folks for a long time and worked with both of...

Long time lurker, first time poster. After reading Wyrick's article I had to...

Simply awful. Both the creative writing class style of Wyrick's article and Ms. Selig's ability to intelligently...
