Brad Ray has passed

[peakbagger]

Anyone who has skied or visited Tucks in the winter most likely was safer because of Brad. He was a snow ranger from 1958 to 2001. He was also a "local" from Berlin which is rarity these days in the National Forest system. Its pretty well standard these days that folks rotate around the country only to end up in their "home" district near retirement.

The obits in the Berlin Daily Sun but its behind a paywall.

There is a disconnect between the 2 above posts in terms of age and location among other things. Are you sure that's the right person Mike?

RIP to both Brads.

RIP to both Brads.

Ditto….the Brad in Mike’s post is not the Brad peakbagger is referring to.

I wonder how many lives Brad saved by posting avi reports for all those years? Many I'd guess.

RIP

My bad. Thought he was too young.
