Updated plan 13/9
Meet at Hornby 6 for prompt 6:30 departure. Paul will be our chauffeur in the police van
Plan is to head to Otira slide and manage a injured skier
-Fell after likely boot failure on first turn from low peak
-Slid several hundred meters, over a small cliff band and landed on steep snow
-Heli unable to extract as bad weather, which may improve as day goes on
-Will require medical attention, packaging and lowering to lower angle terrain.
Bring personal gear for a day in the mountains.
ACR crew attending must be able to:
- Move over snow terrain ( touring skis, split board etc)
- Carry avalanche equipment, min Probe, shovel, tranceiver
- Personal first aid and needs
This will all be dependent on weather and avo forecast.
Could be an option to Ski from the saddle above the slide if time and conditions allowed.
The plan is to travel light, but we need a team of 4-6 to manage. Please register if you can make it.
