Shit, 8 caught, including 4 fatalities, in the Wilson Fork, UT today,

That’s just wack

The avy forecast has been high and considerable in the Wasatch with Mill Creek being listed as particularly dangerous. In addition to all of the well known and abundant recent activity I can’t believe people still want to ski it that bad

Curse word warning!
Not sure why they were there
Or why they kept filming
F-bomb worthy

Here is where that came from. Messed up thing (see third video) is the guy couldn’t even fully dig his brother out before taking to the ‘gram. WTF?

WTF?

I’m sorry but people are just asking for it. Too bad Search and Rescue teams have been unnecessarily exposed to hazardous and potentially deadly situations by blatant disregard of forecasts and reports. Do these people actually expect a different result?

Pretty full parking lot at the Pass this weekend. Guessing it is only going to get worse.
