    GSA DIED IN VALDEZ LAST YEAR

    Wall Street trained pro bro, The GSA, perished in Valdez in 2016.

    I got a pm with limited details from a fake user throw away account. The message told me not say anything yet and to wait for another message?

    Apparently he took too long scoping his line and lost track of his group. They think he got turned around and like skied off a precipice in the Fidalgo zone.

    I don't know what heli op he was using but I bet collectively we can get more intel

    Maybe some other top tier users got similar messages?

    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    If the GSA is dead, that might explain why it stopped snowing and winter won't come.

    Damn, sorry to hear that. I only saw him once before this tragedy. He loved those black diamond runs, especially after they were groomed on powder days.

    i considered that

    but didnt GSA get caught up by the SEC and lose his fancy trader job

    my guess is he moved to the PNW so he could pose even harder. Then this

    I thought I saw him at thanksgiving brunch at the ‘bird. Given the lack of snow it must not have been him.
