Dude, there is so much more to say about that than that, but I suppose it’s in your nature to let it roll. It’s kinda why you’re out there in the first place. Glad it didn’t turn out worse than it did! Love the ideal-vs.-actual graph/chart, though!

Where DID you get the shark following the kayak picture, though? Makes me want to never re-enter the ocean again … Any expanded story for that one?

Wow. From the drawing (not to scale I suspect as Goose has a way of downplaying) you are really lucky to be around to talk about it.

Hope your flying again soon.

Goose tells me that he went to “vail, breckenridge, keystone, and arapaho basin”. All have outstanding powder this season. And I heard that A Basin had just opened up a sick new area called Montezuma this month, with several double-diamond runs. (I once XC-skiied Montezuma umpteen eons ago, but only in the easiest glades.) Was Goose’s flying interrupted in Montezuma?

He crash landed in NH, Waterville Valley, I think. Have you looked at his x-ray? Follow those vertebrae up and you’ll see the squished ones.
