Predictably, the comments are full of peanut gallery glib crap from people who have never spent a day in their lives. Just makes me angry.

RIP Duncan. The good really do die young.

Goes to show it really can happen to anyone. Please be careful out there.

It sucks to loose someone in the mountain, especially in a avalanche. I hope it reminds us the dangers of BC skiing and how important we should be aware of what we are getting in.

The risks were high and he chose to ride anyway. I hope his death was not in vain. SIP
