Thread: Avalanche Safety Device tested

brrrrrrrrrrrrr...............

goooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttssssssssssssss ss..................

......the pics are a little fuzzy because once the pilot spots the goats he heels it over and we get the heck out of there, so these pics are from quite a distance in a big hurry. The chopper pilots stay as far as possible away from the goats as a hundred yard run for a herd at these altitudes could be pretty taxing, if not fatal.......

,,,,,,,for everyone who isn't tired of looking at frame by frame avalanche pic sequences, here's another one. This was the first of a few control avalanches set off after our second test in order to make the valley below safe to enter. It's a tad boring at first, but it went large at the end.......
