Here is the link to the CBC interview with Jeff Adams who survived the avalanche. It's so sad to listen to.

CBC Interview **LINK**

Jeff Adams if you ever read this it is amazing the strength you have to do that interview and important for all to know.

Take care buddy and I am sure all the members including myself would be honored to help you in any way. Just send a message.

Its not like these guys were missing any factors. They were riding in the bottom of the mountain, no climbing, or hillmarking. Experienced riders, had all the right gear, Spot/Abs Pack/Beacon/Probe/Shovel, Avalanche courses. Good thing for the Spot 911 or who knows if those 3 woulda made it out alive.

I am unbelievably surprised how they handled such a tragic situation.

RIP...

Just watched the interview from link above - gut wrenching is all I can say. Brave young man to speak about this and field those questions.
