In that case we should test everyone to be sure they got a good night's
sleep too. Just think, if I'm sleepy because my baby was teething all night
I just might accidentally take you out on the hill. Very dangerous.


I would bet that sleep deprivation accounts for a *lot* of accidents, on
mountain and off.

I agree with your point, though -- there are so many conditions that can
adversely affect performance, from lack of sleep to emotional state to poorly
fitting boots, that it doesn't make sense to pick out a few and agonize over
them. Better to encourage people to recognize when they're not in good shape
and take responsibility for staying out of obvious harm's way.
