Ski Patrol

Did a ride along with ski patrol today. Had to be down at the patrol hut at 7:45.
I got buddied up with a guy called Dom who was reall nice. We were assigned to ridge rocket.
Spent most of the morning working on fences and poles. Then we went up to the top of t-bar in a kind of on call shift so that we were st the highest point to be able to get to an injury.
We got called to a guy that turned out to have broken his tibia.
It was cool to be involved in the process. Looks like a mission getting them off the mountain, in a sled down a bumpy black run.
I rode on the back of the ski mobile checking that the patient and dom were all good.
Hung around while they checked him out and the ambulance took him.
After lunch it was pretty much time to do sweeps of the runs. You just ski down yelling "patrol sweep" and listen to make sure no one is stuck in the trees somewhere.
Went straight from ski patrol to nat and wills to play dnd. It was really fun campaign, good playing with will. We had good character interaction.
Gratitudes:
1. Grateful for the opportunity to do the ride along
2. Grateful to be learning how to play dnd
3. Grateful that I was able to witness quite a serious injuryもっと詳しく
