Fallen Angel

Yesterday was a very sad day for the Beck family (from Antler Lake Alberta) and hundreds of friends. Albert was killed in a avalanche in Blue River BC. Albert was with a group of friends riding in a known safer area and was hit by a avalance released from above. This avalanche, as far as can be determinded, was naturally triggered and 2 riders were caught in the runout which caught up to them riding in a treed meadow. Albert had a chance to trigger his Air Bag and was rescuced within 5 minutes but never recovered from injuries.
Albert will be missed by all who know him and Snowmobiling in Alberta will never be the same.
Our hearts go out to the family right now in a very bad time and our wishes go out to them
Albert was very safety aware and was fully trained in Avalanche safety. He had his Level 2 certicicate and had all the best equipment out there and knew how to use it well. Fellow riders also had training and the rescue was very fast. It seems to me that he was in the wrong spot at the wrong time.
Albert was a great friend to us all and forever will be missed. Family man dedicated to his wife, family,friends and snowmobiling.
Love ya Man RIP

Re: Fallen Angel

Beck Family,

My thoughts are definitely with you at this time. On behalf of the executive of the Trailseekers Snowmobile Club I'd like to say. We are all here for any one of you, a family as dedicated to the sport as you all are, I think I speak for each and everyone of us here when we say that Albert will be greatly missed, he would have given the shirt off his back to keep you warm. May he rest in peace, and sled in the highest hills of them all.

Re: Fallen Angel

My thought are with his wife Terry Beck and their family.
This is such a sad day for his family and the sledding community.

Albert...you will always be with me...
Rest In Peace
