Snowboarder rescued by friends at Squaw

[Tricia]

This is a crazy story.

Crazier still, it was reported in the UK!


So, this snowboarder hucks a 3 ft'er and lands head first into snow, with just a bit of his board sticking out of the snow. His friends follow, but don't land on him (lucky) and start digging him out.

I was skiing powder at Alta many moon ago. Stopped at a natural stopping point and looked down to spy a hat. "Free Hat!" I thought. Picked it up and there was a head underneath.

He lived but it was gross, they expel a $hiton of mucus when they're dying.

Lucky for that dude that you found a free hat.
