I've had another fantastic week in Jasna.I'll write more when I get some time.In the meantime, it looks like the Freeride event is going ahead later this week. This should give people a good idea of what is on offer there. The event takes place on the most accessible face - there are plenty of other slopes available.https://www.jasnaadrenalin.sk/en/
That just from Colorado, or whole of US?Yeah it’s grim stats from skiing/boarding/snow-mobiling. Seems the activities get more and more popular and the deaths happen every year despite all the improvements in information and technology. Makes dieting for 9b look safe...

Would be interesting to know if there were actually more deaths overall in snow sports, or just an increase in line with participation.
The average skier death in CO is a thirty-seven years old experienced male skier wearing a helmet who loses control on an intermediate, groomed run and hits a tree. The majority of deaths — 54 percent — occurred on blue, groomed runs, while 31 percent were on expert trails. The increase in the number of people who wear helmets hasn’t resulted in fewer fatalities.
