Last winter I worked at Webbski at Summit with a bunch of other cool guys who loved to ski and snowboard. One night after a huge snowfall, which is rare for Snoqualmie, my friend Johan (hi dude this is probably your account) showed us all in the M.C.C. a cliff at West that was about 12 feet. I was super scared to drop it but then everyone else did it so I just did it. I felt good after I did it. It was the first big cliff I'd gone off of too.

OK so i was skiing with my dad when i was about 8 (8 years ago) when we went into the woods to take a piss. I was having a bad day and nothing was going the way i wanted. Since i was = in size to a smurf 1 inch of fresh pow was like 3 inches back then. So we take our skis off walk over in to a good area and do our business. On our way out i was skiing and my skis went under a log and i went up and over. my face landed in piss. thought it was mine; it wasn't. my face was in a random mans piss.

Last year up at Stevens me my brother and our 2 friends were goin up Friday for Night skiing. We got up there when the sun was still out. So we decided to take a few runs on Tye Bowl. we took one run and it was good. The next one we wanted to get up on top of the bowl. We took a left off the chair and found our way down. When we got to the top we started skiing. We stopped a little ways down and saw 2 holes. I skid under them fine along with my brother and friend Chris. My other friend Isaac decided to ski above the holes. He skied about 5 yards above the holes and he fell. i heard him yelling and looked back. All that I could see was his head. I took off my skis and booked it to where he was. The 2 holes and became 1 very big hole. He fell in and had his skis on the sides of the hole. he was about 4 feet from the bottom of the hole. I left my skis so I couldn’t put them across the hole. my friend ended up sliding all the way down to rocks. He couldn’t move because his skis were all twisted. Luckily for us the ski patrol was coming down. they helped get my friend out and buy the time he got out the sun had disappeared and it was dark. pretty fuckin scary when it happened.

This one time I was skiing with Thomas O'Connell, and suddenly he had a broken nose and a concussion.

This other time, I was skiing with Thomas O'Connell again, and he dislocated his shoulder.

And that is my story.
 
My first full season out west I was shredding up at Snowbird

in UT early in the season with my roommates and new friends. We were riding Little Cloud lift and

traversing as far out on Road to Provo

as possible until they had ropes up because it was still early. On the other side of the ropes was fresh pow,

so of course we were ducking the ropes for some fresh pow (this was before I

found out how seriously Snowbird is about ducking ropes, and you can be ban

easily for the season, possibly for life).

Towards the end of the day I decide to hike up a little further outside

of the ropes to get a longer shot, and my one roommate comes with me, the one

who at some point proclaimed “When I wake up every day I think how can I be more

like Cartman (from South Park)?” As much as I like Cartman's character, he's a dick any way you look at it. I start

booting up and I come to a 2 ft rock and decide to hike over it. When I get right in front of the rock the

snow gives out and I sink up to my shoulders.

I was hiking with my skis over my shoulder so my skis and elbows caught

me and kept my shoulders about level with the surface of the snow downhill from

the rock. I slowly slide my skis off my

shoulder down hill onto the stable snow and slowly work my self out and

downhill. When I get out I look at where

I fell and I see it’s a huge snow drift below a cliff face and there is about a

2ft wide channel/cravase going down the cliff face about 30’ to the bottom that I was

dangling in. I was really lucky I caught

my self or I would have been 30’ down wedged against a cliff face in who knows

what condition and need to be rescued. I put my skis on and

book it down. When I get down my roommate

that was with me says “Lucky you didn’t fall into that hole/creavase I was

going to leave you there and book, I don’t want to get in trouble for ducking

the ropes.” Learned a lot that day, rocks

are cliffs, there could be a drift below it, don’t duck ropes at Snowbird, and

KNOW YOUR PARTNER and be able to TRUST THEM, don’t go anywhere sketchy with

this person for sure. Could have been a horrible

story, or mystery, but ended up being a darkly funny experience/story.
 
well I was skiing in the backcountry at Alpental and was going in and out of boundaries (a place where lots of people do) ... I was maybe 100ft out of boundaries to drop this not so big cliff when i heard someone say "hey you!" I turned around only to find out that it was a chemistry teacher at my school who is also the head of the ski patrol... he wanted to pull my pass... but he recognized me and only gave me a warning... and told all my teachers at school
