Breaking my leg backcountry skiing

This is the story or our luck running out. We learned an important lesson that even when you are cautious, plan and make safe decisions, things can still rapidly change in the backcountry. Luckily, we were with good people came prepared for such a situation. If this has happened to you or you have had a ski injury like this, please drop a comment for motivation!

If you have had a backcountry injury like Brayds' (and everything turned out good!), please post it in the comments! He needs some motivation 💪

OOOH what fantastic video. No one ever does a story about luck running out. The chocolate milk bit is the funniest, and that dramatic re-actment ( we are talking oscar) and big shoutout thanks to the Canadian rescue folks, how professional are those people.

Thank heavens for the emergency responders

Excellent way to keep Canadian/Australian relations on a solid footing. Accidents can happen anywhere. I was actually in a ski class with two off duty ski patrollers taking the class. I managed to break my shoulder, but at least I had immediate medical assistance on hand.

And hopefully a speedy recovery right?

All is forgiven!

What was the medical bill like if you don't mind me asking?

[@dazedadventure]

So I had travel insurance for this kind of thing but only had to pay for the ambulance and for crutches (around $500 CAD). Alberta Health covered the rest for me. Obviously it depends on your Visa status.

@@dazedadventure Not too bad considering they had a chopper come and get you 😅

At some point you just have to accept that a Dumpster Fire is a dumpster fire. 😉
