Steine's
Trying to find blame or reason in ski deaths would be a waste of time IMHO. Regarding difficult trails, I doubt if it matters how steep the slope is statistically. I once saw these patrollers take some stupid girl half way down Steine's on a sled. They were putting their own lives in more danger than her's had been. It's a consistent pitch and certainly if she made it half way down, I would think she could have made it the rest of the way by herself. If she was in the woods, that would be understandable, but she had just given up in the middle of the trail. That reminds me of the joke the female rep for Olin once told me on a chair lift. It seems a women had gone into the woods out of control and had attracted help from a patroller. When he arrived, he said to her >>You're the third pregnant woman I will have taken out of these woods this year.<< She replied quizzically >>Pregnant? I'm not pregnant.<< He gave her a hard look, moved closer and stated >> You will be when you get out of here.<<
