I heard of a fatal avy at Mt. Baker. Anyone know the details? R.I.P. and my deepest condolences to the family.

Yes, what was in my opinion, a relatively thick wind slab avalanche took another one of our sledder community today. My heart sank when I saw it break loose.
Here are a couple of pics I took after the fact.

I think in a few days when everyone has regained composure from losing a such a great rider there's a few lessons we can all learn from this, and the other recent avy's.

Is that the look out ....? Top of the horse shed /horse coral ?
Complacent... He's hit that a lot of times. I've seen him hit in person... I did the most mellow ride I have done in 5 years today. Enjoyed the sun with good people. I stared at every big hill sketched out. I figured most people would be in the same boat with the latest events... He was too young and too talented. So sad...

nice guy and a hell of a rider
RIP LUKE

Was on the mountain today. Opposite side looking over at the slide below the look out. I've been there watching him jump it before too... I was on the same radio channel and heard all the chatter in the attempted recovery. Was heart breaking. The snowmobile tribe will not be the same without him. He's left a ton of sad brothers in mourning with the loss of life..

Very sad deal. RIP. Incredibly steep and risky slope to be on with considerable avalanche danger, know it well.
RIP. Prayers to family and friends. :face-icon-small-sad
Was he a member here?

Looking at those pictures of the slide I would assume trauma. Thoughts and prayers to family and friends.
