My thoughts and prayers to the families and friends invovled.


I just dont understand anymore...Everyone knows the dangers.....I know that theres just something about riding the mountains.....BUT why put yourself at risk!!! WHY put your family and friend though HELL with worry, and possibly even worse. Cant it wait til next year? Is it worth your life? I just dont get it anymore. As I read "Fallen Angel" posts, it brings tears to my eyes every day, and wonder why... How many more POSTS about lost sledders will we all have to read!!:(

Yes very sad , hate to hear more of this , personaly think there is a reason for all this to happen , opened up my local paper tonite and see a freind of mine has passed away from cancer , so if your number is up you might as well go out enjoying what you like , does not make it any easier on the families and freinds but should console a little knowing they went out enjoying life

R.I.P and my thoughts and prayers are with all

Are any names released yet?

Honestly this is crazy - when the conditions are the worst they have been in 100 years - why is anyone still going out riding? Live to ride next year - stay home AND OFF THE MOUNTAINS - WAY TOO DANGEROUS THIS SEASON!

They will have to block the trail to keep me off the mountain next week. And it sounds like they might.

I dont mean to be rude, but I hear a news story every frigging day about a car accident that killed a guy, but I'm still driving to work every morning. hell, I still drive to work when the roads are ice covered and travel is not recommended, AND THATS FOR WORK!!!!

We need to play extra safe, and talk about the dangers, make smart decisions, and avoid the big slopes.

See you out there on Sunday

There are plenty of safe areas to ride around Valemount, and in Renshaw. Just gotta be smart, and keep your head straight. Ride safe Ruck.....:beer:
