| 'Rookie mistakes' often get made by the most experienced, qualified people. I just did a avalanche terrain management workshop last week and the accident case study we used involved 4 pro-patrollers out touring. EMT, first responder, and level 2 and 3 avalanche certs all around but the mistakes they made were, in hindsight, very obvious. | 'Rookie mistakes' often get made by the most experienced, qualified people.

| Everyone makes mistakes and also gets lucky and gets away with things. It's important to do a little self analysis especially on those 'almost' come-to-Jesus moments and ask yourself 'Did we make the right call today or were we just lucky?' Because luck eventually runs out.\\ | Everyone makes mistakes and also gets lucky and gets away with things.
