Please Ski Safely!

This season has provided us with incredible amounts of snow which makes for great skiing and riding opportunities. With these opportunities there is often significant risk. Yesterday some skiers were out of bounds at Snowbowl and were caught in a slide...they are pretty lucky! A skier at Discovery was killed when he hit a tree.

Today I read that a 16 year-old is in critical condition after he was pulled from a tree well up at Big Mountain. Check this out for tree well safety: http://www.treewelldeepsnowsafety.com/index.php

Avy conditions are dangerous right now with an avalanche warning in effect for the mountains of west central Montana. Seriously folks...please play it safe when you head out to ski or ride.
