>>511800Fuck these people.
I don't take unnecessary risks in the backcountry because I have an avalanche airbag, beacon, shovel, probe, etc.
That equipment gives me an upper hand should I make a bad decision and find myself in a bad situation.... a better chance at making it out alive with than without that gear.
Seriously ... just ... fuck these people. SAR should have taken their damn beacon the second time out.
