Χιονοστιβάδες

Recommended Posts

Μην αγχώνεσαι, δεν θα πούμε τίποτα. Άλλωστε η ακράτεια ούρων δεν είναι δύσκολο να συμβεί.

Εχει τύχει (2 φορές μάλιστα) σε rock&roll πτήσεις να παρατηρηθεί το φαινόμενο σε επιβάτες.

Παιδιά, αν με βγάλετε από χιονοστιβάδα κατουρημένο, παρακαλώ να μη μαθευτεί, δε γίνεται να χαλάει έτσι το image μας


Όλα τα βουνά είναι καλά. Όλοι οι skier είναι καλοί. Μόνο μερικοί άτυχοι στη ζωή άνθρωποι υπάρχουν.

SKIER-TRIGGERED AVALANCHE COVERS ROAD NEAR SILVERTON, COLORADO

Feb 16, 2016

acc_599_12161-r.jpg
Road crews work to clear the debris on Saturday afternoon.

This past Saturday, skiers triggered a wet slab avalanche that covered highway US 550 in Colorado, just north of Silverton. According to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center report, two skiers were caught in the slide, but fortunately neither were buried or injured. The slide debris on the road was 12-15 feet deep and up to 350 feet wide. The start zone was south facing and above tree line.

This avalanche serves as a reminder that riders should be especially cautious when traveling through terrain where avalanche paths cross roadways.

The avalanche forecast for Saturday rated the danger as moderate. It listed the primary avalanche problem as persistent slab, but advised that "you might be able to trigger a small Loose Wet avalanche on southerly slopes as the surface snow becomes moist."
Had motorists been on this section of the road at the time of the slide, this could have resulted in a tragic accident. We urge backcountry riders use a community-first approach when riding in avalanche terrain near roadways or in popular areas.

Η μόνη περίπτωση να έχει σώας τα φρένας είναι να μην την είδε (λίγο απίθανο).

Δεν νομίζω ότι τα έχουν (σώας τα φρένας) τέτοιοι τύποι, έτσι κι αλλιώς.

Σίγουρα κάτι λείπει ... B)

Για να σε τραβάει κάμερα από ελικόπτερο (όχι ελικοπτεράκι-drone), είσαι μάλλον pro και ήδη δε δίνεις δεκάρα, ρισκάροντας τα πάντα για ένα καλό πλάνο και την επόμενη χορηγία που θα σε πάει σε ένα μέρος που δεν έχει κάνει κάποιος κάτι κουλό.

BREAKING NEWS: DIRECTOR OF OREGON’S WALLOWA AVALANCHE CENTER KILLED IN AVALANCHE
Mar 09, 2016

Chief Joseph Mountain, which overlooks the town of Joseph, Oregon. Wallowa Avalanche Center Director Kip Rand died skiing near there yesterday. Google Earth image.



According to the Joseph, Oregon-based Wallowa Avalanche Center, the Center's Director, Kip Rand, died tragically in an avalanche yesterday afternoon near Chief Joseph Mountain west of the town of Joseph. Kip was skiing backcountry with a friend visiting from out of town on a day off when, according to The Observer newspaper, an avalanche caught Kip at the top of a run while leaving his friend, Bill Vandenbos, unharmed. Kip was taken for approximately 600 vertical feet before coming to a stop.



While details about his injuries are still unknown at this time, we do know that Kip died of his injuries before Wallowa County Search and Rescue staff were able to reach him. Search and rescue was alerted via a SPOT tracker 911 call at 4:30 PM, and their staff arrived on scene roughly five hours later, just behind a group of backcountry skiers who arrived to help.



The last avalanche advisory for the area, posted Sunday morning, March 7th by Kip himself mentioned three principal avalanche hazards in eastern Oregon: wet slides due to a rain-on-snow event that effected snow conditions above 7,000', an upside-down snowpack as freezing levels dropped after the rain, and wind slabs near ridgelines facing the northeast, north, and the northwest. Conditions were expected to stabilize during this week.



KIP RAND REMEMBERED AS "HUMBLE, COLLECTED, AND THOUGHTFUL"

The Wallowa Avalanche Center, which had hired on Kip just this fall, remembered him as a dedicated and experienced avalanche professional who was humble, thoughtful, and set to grow the Center's program:



"Kip's commitment to the avalanche center and avalanche safety was immediately evident as he settled into his new position as Director of our organization in November of last year. He came to us with extensive avalanche training, many years of experience as a guide, avalanche educator and pro observer. Most of all, he came to us with a humble, collected and thoughtful demeanor as he spoke and shared his knowledge.



Kip was on a path to grow our non-agency, non-profit center and further increase avalanche awareness within our region. He continued our long standing policy of soliciting guidance from the National Avalanche Center, the American Avalanche Association and nearby larger established avalanche centers as we redesigned product and services to match our funding reserves and personnel.



We are humbled and appreciative of the support and encouragement received from the community and avalanche professionals around the nation."

Big avalanche at Grand Montets, #Chamonixallegedly caused by low a flying helicopter. The lifts were closed at the time. The crown wall is 1-1.5m deep. Can we please not go too crazy this weekend when they open the lifts ??
