Friend of SnowBrains Owen Leeper is here with the first in a series of videos about the Jackson Hole backcountry chutes that you could die skiing. Sounds fun viewing!
Skiing three different couloirs in the Jackson Hole backcountry, all three could kill you if you messed up on the way down. Part 1 of 3, a skinny couloir you have to make two small turns to avoid slamming into the wall with no chance of stopping mid-way.

If Miles died while skiing one of three killers chutes, imagine the traffic this site would get! Would it get posted? You bet it would. People die every year skiing the easy stuff, story seems irrelevant. Chutes or no chutes, dying is possible just about anywhere.
