@ian.deans: 48” of new snow is no joke. Snoqualmie Pass, WA 📍 There was so much snow. This could’ve happened in the parking lot. Water is deadly in liquid form and frozen form. • Ski with people in your eyesight and earshot. Don’t wear pole straps. Be aware of the conditions and the risks associated. If you’re not confident, don’t go. This could’ve been much worse. • Before people say “I can’t believe there’s people skiing right past him.”Ask yourself this. Would you recognize this and would you know what to do? • Right place. Right time. With the right skill set. Glad this guy is OK. #deepsnowimmersion
