Bronco Posted November 28, 2001 Posted November 28, 2001 The avalanche center has started posting the avalanche conditions for the season. http://www.seawfo.noaa.gov/products/SABWA Check yourself before you wreck yourself. Quote
Bronco Posted November 29, 2001 Author Posted November 29, 2001 FYI: I'm sure most of you know this, but, even though you may read the avvy forecast, you still should evaluate snow conditions on your specific route the day you climb/ski/innertube. Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted November 29, 2001 Posted November 29, 2001 Maybe Bonzo will be raised from the grave to respond? Quote
Dru Posted November 29, 2001 Posted November 29, 2001 DISCLAIMER: Snow can kill you. You can die. Use snow appropriately and responsibly. The Surgin' General has determined that snow can be hazardous to your health. Quote
plexus Posted November 29, 2001 Posted November 29, 2001 Just talked to Mark Moore of the avi center this afternoon. High avi danger that could go up to serious by Saturday. Too much dumping on a week layer. Could lead to deep slides, he sayz Play it safe and dig your own pits. Don't just settle for the forecast. Quote
Bronco Posted November 30, 2001 Author Posted November 30, 2001 OK Lammy-pajami, I'll bite It means I would expect most climbers to know that despite what the avalache forecast is it may or may not apply to a particular area (where you are climbing) within the forecast zone covering everything from the crest of the Cascade Range to the Pacific Ocean. Therefore, please use your melon and assess conditions yourself (snow pit, Rutschblock, weather, terrain, etc...) I can hardly think of a worse way to die than being smothered to death with only a few inches of snow between your face and life. Anything you would like to add?? (I heard you have never been on a glacier) Quote
Buzz Posted November 30, 2001 Posted November 30, 2001 I don't know why you pussies are afraid of avalanches. I've ridden a couple big ones and came out just fine. I guess non of you lame asses can ski. [ 11-29-2001: Message edited by: Buzz ] Quote
Bronco Posted November 30, 2001 Author Posted November 30, 2001 yes, I forgot to mention, if you are a really good skier, you dont have to worry about avalanches. Just ask Alex Lowe Quote
Dave_Schuldt Posted November 30, 2001 Posted November 30, 2001 Don't forget to include some $$$ for NWAC on your Xmass list. Govenor Pussy Locke will not help us. Quote
