Dropping in on top of Groups/Booting up behind another group

[rudy]

I'm all for this threadrift. Shit just got way more interesting...

[XXX-er]

Negative on GAH, but I've been to a handful of huts in BC guided and not...but I certainly identify as an Unguided American.

I'm just responding to your claim that your guides were gonna call the cops on North's group and that they would have somehow been removed from their hut trip. I am wondering about the mechanics of that and if it has ever happened.

I did not claim the guides were calling the RCMP, I said the guides complained to GAH apparently twice about North & bros skiing out of their area/ kicking off a class 2 above them, GAH who had rented the hut to North then threatened to kick North and his group out with the assistance of the RCMP if necessary, cuz 3 strikes and yer out.

In fact North fessed up to everything if not more than I was talking about, which makes him look even dumber, he could/ should have just said nothing, again possibly buddy is not the sharpest knife in the drawer

Is there a precedent for a BC skier getting the boot from a hut in BC with RCMP assistance ? maybe not in America cuz there are no RCMP , but very possibly in the BC in BC,

a local guide i know who did a lot of work at GAH told me he had someone removed from a hut so apparently its possible

Altho I supose if you just claim to be a citizen of the world maybe they would leave you alone ?

This is not thread drift cuz this is totally skiing/ being above another group in addition to being where you were told not to be

So be it, we drift.

You can't say you didnt know cuz this was not the middle of nowhere, you booked a hut in the GAH tenure a valley which will have 60+ skiers stacked up in it all winter long and you knew this cuz changover was a gong show, there are 4 huts with 4 areas stacked on top of one another, the maps have clear lines of the 4 area's attached to the 4 huts

I was aware that there were adjacent GAH huts. Was not aware that we were required to stay hemmed in to specific terrain until Day 1 at the hut. I don't remember reading about it ahead of booking. Maybe we ARE as dumb as you've repeatedly suggested and missed it. If it wasn't there before, I would assume it's been added. I think it's a pretty unique setup/policy worthy of explicit mention upfront. Myself and the majority of the group would've opted out and spent our loonies and toonies elsewhere we'd known about it prior to booking.

so you were told once not to ski outside your area and then you go outside your area a 2nd time and kick off a big slide , not only were you skiing above another party you were not suposed to be there and were told not to go there

- I was not involved in either trip to terrain in or adjacent to the Sunrise valley
- Nobody skied above another party, unless you know something I don't know
- My recollection is that the slide was triggered from the ridge that runs E off Cupola Mtn. Y/N? If Y, and the ridge is the boundary between Meadow and Sunrise tenure, are we not allowed to use it to access terrain on the Meadow side? Where's the cutoff for "trespassing"? 10 steps off the apex of the ridge? 11? If N, and it was a ridge fully in Sunrise zone school away.

well include the hut keeper who was big guy and the cook who was a hot weightlifting gal I duno if they stand a chance, in any case they certianly didnt look very good or sound real smart on the radio, the duh factor was heavy

If hut keepers are in the ski-off I feel good about my chances. Our hut keeper, Robson (no joke), absolutely ripped. If you want to include a radio-smooth-operator-off I'd propose a rating scale of 1 to Chuck Yeager. You can include a Canadian pilot in the scale if you'd like but Chuck=10. Sorry.

Cliff Notes:

The Unguided Americans (I want T shirts and meme please) were given no guidance.

I duno who would want to be guided by guides who didnt know where they were,

I don't know why it was relevant to the Canadian guide

I don't know why guides who were twice told to stay in their lane did not

maybe a T-shirt with "an unguided American guide " ?

change over day is a gong show getting on the choppers with 60 other skiers one might think

I wonder where all these other skiers re going ?

py source, Snowbrains. No mention of it that I can find on the CAIC's site.

Super shitty behavior of the second party who were apparently just to impatient to wait. Then not to render aid...

[MagnificentUnicorn]

It’s not an issue according to some of the posters in this thread, nothing to see

Look harder. I it one one two incidents that prompted this thread. The last Sunday day in the Northern Mountains. One the next Sunday day, the hazards inherit in sharing popular lines with other humans will be the same.

I don't think anyone advocated the behavior of group 2. You are swinging at a piñata that ain't there.

This is the best TGR thread in weeks.

[I've seen black diamonds!]

1) You can't drop in on people even if they are fucking annoying.
2) You can't expect people not to drop in on you if you are skiing a popular, easy to access route.
3) Even if you run into to someone on a less popular, more remote rout, they are much less likely to drop in on you.

I also want the T shit

Dead horse? Ooops, hahaha!

Duh, my bad. Thought this thread was older and read through pages 2-3 about unguided Americans, hahahaha.

I'll show myself out.
