[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone who has a pool or a dog or a gun or a car is more of a risk taker than these women.[/quote] That might sound nice in your head but it's not remotely true. Are we supposed to feel sorry for these people? I guess I feel vaguely sorry for their kids, but these were stupid women doing a stupid thing. [/quote] The same amount of sorry I would feel for someone whose kid drowns in a pool or who gets eaten by a dog. I feel sorry for all of them. Life has risks and is meant to be enjoyed despite those risks. Very few people die in backcountry avalanches - it isn't very risky at all compared to many other things people do. [/quote] I can't believe I'm joining in this stupid aside but you aren't comparing apples to apples in any way. This group headed out in dangerous conditions when avalanche risks in their area were high. We aren't comparing to people out in the backcountry in non threatening conditions. You are being dumb.
