Amazing, simply amazing, the power of the avalanche........bent, twisted pieces of metal and plastic.......insurance companies will be busy for a while.

That would be crazy if true

 

[chunky]

man u would never belive that snow done all that damage....

 

[moyiesledhead]

You know some are being parted out, but there has to be a lot of them being ridden in BC when you know they don't have to be registered. By the sounds of it, this will all change next year when mandatory registration is required like the rest of the country.

Snowmobile registration has been mandatory in B.C. since 1971!!!!

The new rules being phased in over the next 2 years will extend that to ATV's, which have never required registration up till now.

Snowzombie - good that you posted this. Take a good hard look people...........Then think about the people the media had footage of......... of the guy laying in a hospital bed..........of the 12 yr old with stitches down the whole side of his head.............the numourous others we did not see, that were injured..........the effects on all those that were there. When you look at these machines all twisted and torn,,,,, remember everyone of those sleds had a rider.

Allot of you are turning this into a discussion on politics.

I really think your missing the point.

This should provide some SHOCK VALUE of the repercussions of what can happen.
This is 2 seasons in a row that I have had friends lost and effected by Avalanches.

No more .............please

I have made a pledge to myself that when I see someone putting themselves or others at risk, I will try to stop them, and explain to them, that what they are doing is wrong. GOD knows, I've been punched before, so a couple more....oh well.
I only hope that if I get caught up in the moment, and it happens,,,,,, that somebody comes over and gets me back on track.

Allot of times people will applogize for the rant at this point.

I'M NOT

I'm laying down the gauntlet. When you see someone screwin up. Say Something!!!
It really does'nt matter if it's your 50th trip to the mountains or your 1st. If you feel it's wrong, it's probably wrong

Say Something!!!

 

[tumblina]

Wow. I feel sick and deeply sad just looking at those pictures. Thanks for posting them. It is a good reminder for all of us.

 

[tmix]

unbelieveable carnage!!!!!

good for you, I will be doing the same

 

[Junior Highmark]

Woooow thats a lot of carnage.

What will happen to the sleds that aren't ridable?

Someone should organize an auction and see if any of the owners will donate parts, and use the proceeds to start something with avalanche awareness?


I mean those tracks are probably good, and some of the hoods, and shocks.. Etc..etc..

But who would want the stress of rebuilding or re-using instead of just getting rid of?

 

[catsass]

Does anybody know if all the sleds have been dug out yet ?

 

[Rescue Pilot]

That question will be answered in late June, could definitely find a few more under that depth of snow...

That and a TON of debris.

I could imagine gloves, helmets, cameras, crap galore.
