Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Alaska Heli-Skiing Crash Not Likely a Mechanical Failure

That article was a beautiful tribute. Zach sounds like an amazing man and one whose loss diminishes us all.

May he RIP and may the Good Lord comfort his family and his (obviously) huge circle of friends! He appears to be a young man that fostered more caring and love into his <too> few years than many old men combined.

The conditions and anomalies present in the mountains are too numerous to speculate as to the cause but throw in the anti-gravitational proclivity of helicopters and the variables are exponential. I’d go out on a limb and say that it wasn’t carelessness....

I hate to be cliche but it seems like Zach is the personification of a man that died doing what he loved while living his dream.
