If you've ever hiked/shredded a backcountry bowl like this, you'll probably find this to be scary as hell. Allow the description on Vimeo to set the scene on Cody Peak: "This video should serve as a reminder never to let your guard down while traveling in the sidecountry or backcountry. This slide happened around 11:30am on 1-2-12. Red flags were plentiful on this first sunny day after about a 30inch cycle, and we almost got seriously spanked." Remember hits, Mother Nature can throw a gross fastball, so don't forget to venture into the backcountry with a self-inflating avalanche airbag backpack. It just might save your life.
