Big skier triggered slide on Red Mtn Pass, CO.
There's nothing better than sliding down snow, flying through the air

Kinda insensitive to put "big skier" in the title. He triggered an avalanche, doesn't mean you have to shame him for his weight like that.

Thing was like 15 feet tall on the road. Held up traffic till about 6pm when CDOT was able to dig a tunnel through it just large enough for passenger vehicles.
Lots of people were getting after it this weekend on Red Mountain. Not surprised something went, but that was one of the biggest slides I've ever personally seen. Can't believe no one died.
