As the weather warms entering the spring skiing season and ski resorts turn on their hoses to prepare for pond skim events across the nation, I couldn’t help but remember this incredible act of alpine rescue professionalism at the annual Appalachian Mountain Resort pond skim.
The ski patroller not only rescued the floundering snowboarder who had taken a hard slam, she didn’t keel over in laughter as this his rather revealing wardrobe emerged from the icy water.
Cheers to this woman for maintaining her composure while making the save.
