“I was walking down the backside of this face to get on the other side of this ridge and felt the earth shake under my feet and I knew the cornice collapsed.”
Absolutely terrifying cornice collapse documented by the boys at Mystery Ranch Outdoor Gear during a ski trip up to Alaska. The collapse was triggered by walking along a ridge and the whole mountainside ripped out. As you can see there were multiple lines down the face before it gave way. Crazy to find the cornice the size of a small school bus intact in the debris field. If the video doesn’t automatically skip to the slide go to @9:45.
