Here’s a quick edit that coincides with a past update. It’s all helmet cam footage but it turned out OK. I left the fall in the beginning because, hey…we all fall. Enjoy!

Looks like CNFAIC has added a Friday and Saturday Summit Lake Avy Advisory. This is big news for those of you riding down on the Kenai. Also, in a continuation of interesting updates, a student at APU (possibly a Forest Service Intern?) is conducting a survey to gauge the need and desire for a Chugach Front Range Avy Advisory. Here’s a link to the survey.
My question is, where the crap is a Hatcher Pass avalanche forecast center? I’d throw some money down on that. I have to think that there are usually more people riding and snowmachining in the mountains surrounding Palmer and Wasilla then in the Chugach Front Range. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I should do a survey? All I know is that I see A LOT of kids bootpacking up the west Marmot and El Dorado on bluebird days. Would an advisory mean more people?
