    It’s very real in places in AK, BC, Iceland and Norway Not too mention I know of at least one fatality where a lake was the terrain trap as well.

    The Canadian Prime Minister's brother, Michel, was swept into a lake by an avalanche. From Wiki:

    "[Michel] was taking a backcountry skiing trip with some friends in Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park when he was swept into Kokanee Lake and unable to reach the shore. His companions were unable to effect a rescue, and Trudeau drowned. An extensive search was launched, but his body has never been found. The lake's high altitude and limited days of open waters each year prevented divers from completing the search."

    Hooray! Let me know what you enjoy/ learn from the most (in the new TAR). That Ski Journal looks interesting too. Are they sold on newsstands?
