Set Off An Avalanche

  • Опубликовано: 5 фев 2022
  • Went in to the mountain today knowing the avalanche danger rating was high, right from valley bottom to alpine yet we were still a bit surprised by the one we set off. It was a good lesson for us not to get too complacent after playing in an area for a couple hours and not seeing any signs of instability. All in all it was another good day spent up on the mountains.

    Great stuff as usual. Also, it's great to see you be more active about stewardship and Av safety as your views have grown. It's really easy to edit out "boring" stuff like that but you've been making it point to express the importance of being smart, checking av reports and paying attention to risks and conditions around you. Mountain riding is growing like crazy, making a point to talk about that stuff might literally save someone's life.
    Much respect.

    My job for 38 years was investigating workplace accidents in Federal jurisdictions. 20 some years ago I investigated three individuals who were caught in a workplace accident avalanche. Their job was to do snow analysis for avalanche information risk, this was prior to the internet and you would phone a number and get the risk rating before you head to the mountains. 1 of these individuals was a winter mountain guide. They were ski touring into an area they had been many times and digging snow pits for risk assessment. They were caught in a slab avalanche when they were skiing out. One individual died, the other 2 lived. I went to the area where the avalanche happened it was just a small hill, it looked so innocuous. These individuals were well trained and they got caught. Be OVERSAFE when it comes to avalanche risk assessment. Really enjoy your riding but its not worth being buried alive for a rush. OVERSAFE. Live to ride another day.

  • @unclegeek

    Glad you are all safe. Conditions change so quickly in areas so close to each other. Good reason to never ride alone. In 1992 I was smashed in a class 3 slab avi in the icefields area of Banff National Park. Thought I was smart, but more cocky than I knew. Nearly cost me my life. From awesome to a horror show. Never ride alone. A little slide can bury you enough to not be able to move for sure. I was shocked when everything stopped how set up the snow was. My head was above snow but I could not have undug myself further alone.
    Keep safe guys, your video was exceptional learning for those who don't know the danger is always lurking.

    Hey Matt...gotta give a shout out to you today because this ride was on my birthday.
    I'm currently undergoing Cancer treatment in Kelowna and I look forward to seeing your content every morning...it really helps to raise my spirits. Even my wife is getting into it.
    I live in Fernie and I was only able to get one ride in at the start of December, but I hope to get some rides in at the end of the season if I've recovered enough.
    Your dad and the rest of the Jerry's are great fun to watch as I'm a Jerry myself. I'm 61 but try to ride like a 20 year old. LOL.

    Definitely show the avys. For me I watch what you guys are doing (way steeper then what I ride) and I think you guys never trigger anything so it kind of gives a false sense of security. Loving the vids. I found this one very helpful on how dangerous it is out there

    • @gcow8328

  • @adamnordstrom156
    @adamnordstrom156 2 года назад

    First of all, you have an incredible channel and it is noticeable what development you have made only in the last year both as a rider and filmmaker.
    One thing I have thought about and felt that I wanted to mention (there will probably be many who don't agree with this) but in your clips, I actually think you drive better on the Polaris. Or at least I think your clips with the Polaris exceed the clips with the Ski-Doo.
    This comes from a person who has ridden both Ski-Doo and Polaris and is completely impartial.
    Continue with your awesome clips and your channel will grow incredibly much in the future no matter what brand you run!

    Rivet on a flapper on the inside of your airbox, where the frog skins are. That way you can evac snow on the factory intakes when you burp it, and it shouldn't draw as much hot air, unless the factory locations are totally plugged.

    One might argue that being able to set off an avalanche in a controlled safe manner is a positive thing vs. an unexpected trigger by *ignorant passers-by. Great video again 👏 thank you. *unaware , unsuspecting, distracted, I was in a group when a rider was trying to extricate his sled with his back to the hill. The hill sloughed off and buried him. Had many observers not been there it certainly would have been fatal. He never rode the mountains again 🙁

    What people need to understand about riding in avalanche terrain is its all about acceptable risk. These guys are expert riders and their risk level assessment, especially in complex terrain, is going to accept a much higher level of risk than your average rider. If you ride in the mountains you must know and accept your experience level. If you over estimate your skill level and acceptable risk level it can have serious consequences for you and who ever you're riding with.
