VF: This, and also your Post #3584: Your pictures as always are stunning!

I do appreciate your "TR Safe" policy. But isn't there a risk of falling, or particular with snow, of sliding backwards at the slightest AFT slope?

It has happened to others (see here). But with the tail hanging over the cliff, in your case the result would be much more dramatic. How do you ensure, before idling throttle, that your helicopter can't slide back?
