“It was a miracle… We always hope for the best but it was getting along to the point where I was starting to fear the worst” – Kim Kircher, Crystal Mountain Ski Patrol
52 year-old Matthew Paddock is lucky to be alive after getting lost and spending a night in the “South Back” zone of Crystal Mountain reports KIRO 7. Paddock built a snow cave for shelter before ultimately making his way towards HWY 410.
