Avalanches, of course, can happen any time, any place. Even inbounds at a resort. This dad posted a sobering video of he an his family riding Courchevel Resort in the French Alps. He’s on a groomed run when a wet slide comes tumbling down the slope, taking out one of his kids. “On April 16, 2022, 10:30 a.m., I was skiing with my son Alexis age 4,” wrote gegepilot on his YouTube page. “I understood right away both girls would be fine, the mama did a great job..lucky day for everyone. Nature is beautiful but can be deadly.”
