Spending a day getting caught up in the office nursing a cold, got a call from my buddy just after he dug out his partner.

Skining up the South side of Radar Love Bowl, they triggered a soft slab avalanche that took both of them for a ride. My friend said that they were spaced far apart on the skin and when he got to the steep breakover it ripped out above him and around into the Northeast facing timbers. Said he went for a 400' ride keeping above the debris and keeping his skis, his buddy was burried with his hand sticking out. After he dug out his partner out he called me incase someone else came by and called out a rescue, everyone was ok. I called Alta Central to relay the info. The guy who went for a ride lost his poles, so they eventually skied down to the Canyons after trying to find an alternative way out and running into more naturals around the area.
