Wed, 05 Jan 2011 13:22:48 +0000http://www.shayboarder.com/?p=14170#comment-77771I did a bit of research into tree wells the first time that I went to Canada (Fernie)…
I know it might be stating the obvious seems as though you’re talking about shredding off-piste – but having a beacon on, and knowing how to use it, will always help.
If you did get stuck, your friends can use that to find you and help you out!

It’s crazy how well snow muffles sound because I couldn’t find or hear her yelling for help until I was just a few feet away. Hate to think what could have happened if she’d gone in head first…
Anyways, stay safe out there and ALWAYS ride with a partner and keep that person in sight. Maybe take a whistle to.

Trees are fun, but more dangerous than they seem. This is definitely something everyone should read before starting to ride trees. Good lookin’ out!
