Groomer gets caught in an avalanche.

Pretty wild clip of a snowcat driver getting caught and carried in an avalanche. While riding out the slide is pretty nuts by itself, the driver then casually heads back up the mountain without skipping a beat, getting right back to work.

While it’s not 100% clear where this went down, it was shared by the Boire la Gnôle sur le Télésiège group, which literally translates to “drinking hooch on the chairlift”. This groomer probably wasn’t drinking hooch on the drop, but I would probably need to if I experienced an avalanche like that!
