    Touche'.... just don't do any out-of-bounds BC skiing / boarding. Especially on north-facing slopes.

    Or test it before you get on it. Any time, that's the problem with "new" people in the back country they think because they bought the gear they are safe. Back country is safe as long as you go with people who have half a brain. I plan on going up today to do some back country by forest lakes. Just gotta wait for the wife to get home.

    preferably something taller then your roof line, from what I know it'll give better reception

    I always say shorter. I was smacking a lot of trees when I had a 4' firestick, and now I went to a 2' and I cant tell any reception loss.

    All depends on where you mount it as well.

    I was actually referencing Loveland...still shaking my head over that one. Super experienced can still get you super killed.

    I was too. And I doubt they were super experienced no matter what the news said about it. I'm sure it presented with a 10ft blown cornice and they still thought it was a good idea to be on the face. I'm up in Loveland a lot, and there are areas that you just don't do under the conditions no matter how great it might be if it does not break lose. I have been doing back country since I moved to Colorado, and it's 90% of what I do on a normal basis.

    to many to list, check the build thread
    Actually there isnt ever a cornice where they were, that area is one of the only area's that socks in snow and above it is usually bare all the way to the summit because of the wind.
