Montana. Someone posted this footage on reddit a few days ago.

Did this cross the skin track? Reminds me of the stuff that's been posted about WB Cowboy Ridge the last few days. Surprised it didn't slide where skier #2 was standing. The side angle looks good enough to go too. Looks like he is standing on large surface hoar.

Holy shit, that is pretty incredible footage. So damn lucky.
lol wow
I have the feeling that this was a compression failure, since the skier is half way across the flats when the fracture happens. But, its hard to tell if the propagation goes up hill or not.
Holy shit. Remember to get out of debris paths when stopping.Quote:

More details in the Montana thread. Go back to 1/10 or so. Ted26 has the details, if I understand properly he was the skier.
Got it. For everyone else, starts here:Quote:

Thinking they need to watch the next skier, or they are “done”.
Those treeless flat areas are danger run outs.
But damn. Crazy video. Never seen one like that before.
