Ditto. Nuff.

That was a SWEET vid. Why aren't they putting that on the resort site to promote the place? Ski patrol is always out there testing snow pack and you hear bombs all the time before opening... You can see that we have a lot of exposure above and in the resort... and I don't even ski there that often...

WOW...

As a member of the PMRC (Parents Munitions Resource Center) I think it's time that we skiers acknowledge the threat to national security that handing out all those charges and howitzer rounds causes.

It's situations like these that expose our children to the dangers of being targeted by hysterical religious groups sneaking around in the dead of night in burkhas and kaftans. Imagine how easy it would be to steal those munitions left in the hands of a bunch of drunken and stoned ski patrollers who are much more focused on chasing tail and getting another bong hit than properly guarding our nations safety.

Join with me now, take up your keyboards, your pens or quills or your carrier pigeons or smoke blankets and write your congressmen to warn them of this irresponsible exposure.

Thank you.

An excellent example of avalanche avoidance, survival, and ski fashion:

Wow, I need to get up to Alyeska.

**skideeppow** · 08-26-2008, 08:39 PM

i thought the military took back all the 105's
It is amazing, the amount of snow that was moving.

**ak_powder_monkey** · 08-26-2008, 08:57 PM

was that the fatty release from this last season (with the 20' crown)? Liked when they shot down the cornice, that was sick...

Yeah, that's pretty much what I imagined whenever I'd dodge through the house- and car-sized chunder in Glacier Bowl.

Man, that video makes me miss Aly. Such an underrated mountain.

**gpcharles** · 08-27-2008, 02:15 PM

that was thoroughly enjoied. i'd love that job

**Ccard257** · 08-27-2008, 02:35 PM

Unbelieveable. Great find!

**Campo** · 08-27-2008, 03:22 PM

To me, irresponsible exposure means going out into an area in-bounds that hasn't been bombed.

Grow up man...I suppose you will next ask for fertilizers that can be used for mass explosives to be taken off the market because the pose a threat to your JONG ass?

Weak, just like your skiiing!

Who the fuck is this JONG?

**gpcharles** · 08-27-2008, 04:05 PM

campo has to be an alias

**chadeau** · 08-27-2008, 04:45 PM

Nice. With so many explosions I thought I was watching an alpine war movie or something.

**carpathian** · 08-27-2008, 06:09 PM

All those damned explosions made my dog go crazy last year. In several different incidents; he broke out my truck window; chewed up the inside of truck when I tied him I there; chewed up inside of cabin when I left him at home; escaped and ran out of Girdwood valley...

Aside from all the sweet powder I was skiing, I felt like a bad dog owner or something. I guess you can train a dog with a shotgun and treats? I better get on it.

It was - though I heard it was "only" 12' at the Moneys.

That video is about 20 minutes long ... a friend on the patrol gave it to me. He's the one way too close to the stick charge at about 2:12. It's much better in this version.
