    Smile Doh! Somebody lost their bucket loader privliges.

    Was up at Mt. Rose for a couple of runs today and saw somebody ran the parking lot plow off the side. Check it out, you could totally build a transition onto the bucket and rail slide it.

    Rose wasn't that great. They only had the old slow tripple chair on the Rose side open and it was going at a snails pace in brutal winds. Not really anybody there but all the pow was wind hammered. Only took a couple of runs using a friends VIP pass so it was free.
    Actually we went up there to do some BC but the avy conditions were too gnarly so we bagged that idea.

    Should be, it has an EROPS (Enclosed Roll Over Protection System) cab. I can't recall ever seing a ROPS/EROPS cab fail.

    Still that operator is going to be in a world of hurt with his boss. Moving a machine that big is NOT easy.

    It's all about having the right tool for the job.

    The following is an example of both the right and the wrong tool.

    I guess not Norway since the signs are in English. Still, I'd love to know where that was.

    Sorry, don't really know. I got it via memepool from

    here.

    edit - I'd guess scotland or britan in general. The green truck has a steering wheel on the right hand side.

    On a Saturday night last month, a car rolled off of the pier in Roundstone, Co Galway Ireland and into the water.

    I like the dog checking out the action when the first truck flips! See him over there on the right?

    It's not photoshopped from any of the frames that have already been posted, so I'd give it at least a little chance of being real.
