On a sunny day my dad and me were skiing steep lines through the trees with boot deep sometimes kneedeep snow. it had rained a little the day before and in the night it started snowing. We were at the end of our run and decided to walk up 20 meters to were there were tracks. i was listening to music but while we were walking up i could hear a loud rumble and in that second the whole snowpack gave away. The snowpack had a width of about 3-4 meters. But luckilly we were in the woods so i slided two meters and slided into a tree that i could grab onto. I didnt have any gear cause i was just 13 than. But we hiked up and stayed on the slopes that day. :)Ps: Sorry for some spelling mistakes. I live in Holland:)
