From the Summit Daily. That is one lucky dude.
From the article :eek:
“When I got there, there were two ski boots sticking out of the snow,” Tom said.

“It took me a minute to figure out what was going on because he was upside down in the same thing as a tree well but on the other side of a rock obstacle that had been marked,” Karen said. “He was buried upside down.”
