From the SST today:
Why not urge snowfields to place more red flags and roped areas perhaps? Does the newspaper run stories like this just to wind me up? And what will that do to David?
The Mountain Safety Council is recommending skiers and snowboarders wear helmets after another fatality at Mount Hutt Skifield in Canterbury. A Christchurch snowboarder died after falling about 300 metresMate, you don't need to be demanding helmets, try recommending parachutes for plunging 300m off a cliff.

Suppose it is a little like a fighter pilot wearing a helmet!!
ReplyDeleteNo problem 'recommending', when they start forcing people to wear things because it's good for them, that gets me irritated.
