Joining us today is Jason Blevins, The Colorado Sun’s outdoor industry reporter. He wrote last week about the Peak 7 avalanche at Breckenridge, which killed four young men on Feb. 18, 1987 and changed Colorado’s ski industry forever.

The deadly slide triggered an extreme-terrain arms race in Colorado as well as a 35-year debate over ski area boundaries, personal responsibility and what constitutes an acceptable risk.
