During the Backcountry Basecamp on January 21st, OR Show Director Kenji Haroutunian agreed to be buried in a simulated Avalanche burial using an Avalung. He spent an hour under snow, and some how “Twittered” his updates (@outdoorretailer).

I’m not sure what is more ridiculous – the fact that he spent and hour buried, or that he was able to twitter?
ahh, the marvels of modern technology… i think he had someone twittering for him though. it was cool to read the updates.
