2. Wow...he was sure giving it his all to help...

even another minute or so would have meant that guy wouldn’t make it.

A salute, sir.

4. The snow ate him!

I read about how the area under tree lines are treacherous because the snow doesn't pack as well as it does everywhere else. But damn! If that second skier wasn't sharp enough to see orange movement when he turned back, that man would be dead!
