Thanks, your barking up my tree. It reminds me of a quote that I believe is credited to the late Ed LaChapelle. "The experts are all dead" . X

Probably need Gary Brill's response to this one, but was it Ed who said, "you can't call yourself an avalanche expert until you've been in an avalanche"?

I think the quote you're looking for may be this one from Andre Roch:

"The avalanche does not know that you are an expert."
