Now, with respect to the "lesson learned" here; things that I always have with me when skiing:
- an old analog cell phone, as well as a two-way radio.
- GPS
- a lighter, and some paper to start a fire
- a few candy bars
And all of that with me with absolutely no intentions of going out of the green/blue runs. I also make sure people know where I am going, and when to expect me back. That last bit is so important; had they been reported missing earlier the search would have started earlier.

Wow thats quite the list considering the terrain you typically ski.
How do you cart all those electronic devices around? No fear of damaging them if you take a spill? Or having them inadvertently hurt you? Is your analog cell phone activated or just an old beast?
Do you ski with a daypack on?
