We have a 14kw generator plumbed to the propane lines, but yeah most houses are in the dark. We have to use it way too many damn days/yr, unfortunately.
180" in Dec and measurable snow accum 23 days in a row to close out the month!
Like a hard landing to be back at work this morning.
Glad you came out largely OK there Norse, just don't sneeze or fart for the next 4-6weeks and yer good.Move upside and let the man go through...

Glad you're all right. If you had looked up, what would you have done? Do you mean you would not have ventured out, or you would have had a few seconds more warning?
I figured there was always an attempt made to control the stuff above the traverse.that's all i can think of, but i'm sure there's something else...

Heal up Norseman, glad it wasn’t worse than it was and hope your season isn’t impacted too much. Nice talking with you.

Damn Norse, glad you were able to come out of it. We were just over in Pineapple Pass and I too was a little too lax on being worried about objective overhead hazard after all the stability.

Hey Norse, glad this was not a worse outcome. Fast healing buddy. I thought that was a very good write up of the incident BTW.

Glad all are okay. Oven range size blocks sound pretty gnarly.

I’m sorry to hear about the injury, but relieved that you all avoided the worst outcome.

Norse, so happy you are relatively okay! Thanks for both write-ups.
Everyone should read the NWAC summary/report. Good post-analysis and reminders that the side country is still BC and good practices should always be discussed. We have all gotten lax once in a while...

Thanks for the well wishes, all.
A place name correction: "Safe Not Safe Trees" is the proper name, not "Safety Trees" as was originally reported.
We are not the first party to have trouble at that spot.

really hoping the ribs heal up fast mang.
Count my blessing to have such capable ski friends and to have been one who was able to avoid the brunt of this slide. Justin's write up is good reading to all of us that venture out the High T. Even on days when the majority of snow slopes are solid and stable like yesterday, there is always risk around us. The cornice and upper ridgeline wind loading that occurred overnight wasn't front of mind and its a vivid reminder to everyone to always be geared up and following good safety protocols.
Dan (non-mag) and Norse are both very fortunate our situation didn't pan out worse than it did. Especially Dan who just forgot to put on his transceiver. Stay alert amigos.

Damm. Heal up norseman. About the same time that was going down I was on the upper traverse off of Armstrong that goes under shot 6 with my 9 year old daughter. She kept stopping below the cliffs so I had to get on her about the hazard from above as there was starting to be some spindrift sluff.
