    He is from Missoula, I've seen his name on Facebook but probably don't need to be the one to announce it here since I don't know him. Seems a quality guy based off of what I've seen so far. Condolences....

    Yeah i almost didnt want to post it, and i agree that names arent really necessary. More of a "heads up" for the state of Montana. and bullseye data for any backcountry travelers. Bad layers all over the place, and the accompanied risk doesnt seem to be on everyone's mind.. i know its on mine all the time.

    Shit. Just found out who it was. Buddy of mine from ski racing days though I knew his big brother much better. Sad.
    Flying the Bluehouse colors in Western Canada! Let me know if you want some rad skis!!

    "He is god of snow; the one called Ullr. Son of Sif, step son of Thor. He is so fierce a bowman and ski-runner that none may contend! He is quite beautiful to look upon and has all the characteristics of a warrior. It is wise to invoke the name of Ullr in duels!"
