Given the amount of participation, concern, and involvement of the maggots recently about slides, I'd like to request a new forum dedicated to the discussion of avalanches.
I think it would be beneficial for our community to spend more time discussing snow safety and to have a forum about it. We've already had too many maggots involved in slides this year, and hopefully a section dedicated to the discussion of slides will help end this pattern. Thanks, Brett

Seconded and also it's about time you reminded people how we can donate to help with the overhead you carry while running this great resource.

What the Beav said.
I'd be happy to move all pertinant posts in there though. Or if everyone feels that there is a need for just an avi forum, sure - why not? I'm easy.When you're feeling down, just remember: It's always darkest before it goes pitch .... fucking.... black.

If we do it over there we should have it organized by location. Utah, Colorado, etc, etc. That way you can check observations in your local area.
Maybe just an ongoing thread like T-tips has with the Wasatch thread.

weather and snow conditions is just that, weather and snow conditions.
Having a ton of info on avies without having to sift through posts like "it's 70 degrees and sunny here in Florida" or " it's raining at mt. X" would probably help people more.
However, I think the biggest benefit of having a forum dedicated to it would be to help put an exclamation mark on the importance of avalance safety. Does someone have to die before people get serious about this issue? Damn. That's just my opinion. Thanks for the sweet board Owens.

Could we just sticky some threads of each state at the top so he doesn't have to create a forum for each one? I think all the info in one place should be the goal. Originally Posted by Trackhead

WTF is wrong with you AKPM. Seriously, how much crack do you smoke? Read the thread again. The only way Blurred would be starting a flame war is if it is with himself meaning he is also "buttfuctelevens". I doubt that is the case. (although I'm sure some would beg to differ) Originally Posted by ak_powder_monkey

I'm just posting to be cool.
If summit has his own forum, then blurred should have one too.Avoid employing unlucky people - throw half of the pile of resume's in the bin without reading them.
