Lots of news about this on the mainstream news. Very sad news for the snowboard/backcountry community in CO.

It's a tragic loss for the Splitboarding community as for all backcountry users. Sadly it took place during a Splitboard festival.

My heart goes out to the friends, families and everyone who experienced or are effected by the event.

They were ascending up sheep creek which has notorious reputation. Losing 5 BC travelers is horrific for a small community. Heartfelt sympathy to those involved. Lots of chat on TGR slide forum.

Time to re-consider the "Considerable" rating...
