These Colorado skiers got extremely lucky after they nearly avoided a massive avalanche and rock slide. The snow was firm corn, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t an avalanche risk. It all started with a rock pile the size of a car. We are thankful that these guys walked away from this scary slide, but make sure to know before you go into the backcountry.

โ€œA near miss on the Naked Lady Coulior just a couple of days ago. A good reason to wear helmets!โ€ stated the Colorado Avalanche Information Center.
