Replying to Check for loose clothing and equipment

heh, no one ever really thinks about this. I have skied with my pack before and never really thought much of it, until yesterday. 3rd run of the day Im about to get off the chair at Wolf Creek. my skis hit the ground and all the sudden I am taken around the lift and off the other side of the place where you get off. I was held in by my backpack which apparently have a strap wedged into the space where the armrest is attacked to the base of the chair 15 feet in the air. I told the lift attendant to just put it in reverse but he said he couldnt so I got mad at him. then the ski patroll came. apparently the getto ass lift at wolf creek doesnt have reverse. so I just took my arms out of my pack and fell. It was flat, which was why I didnt want to do it in the first place, but it was a powdery landing and I barly felt it. Im actually glad it happened because it got my adreneline going for the rest of the day. on the way home I got a speeding ticket because I was going 15 over, but the pig reduced it to 5 over.
