| episode_narrative | A 32 year old man was buried and killed in a sizable avalanche in the backcountry near the Aspen Highlands Ski Area. The man was participating in an avalanche awareness class in the Five Fingers Bowl. The victim was the third person to ski across a section of the slope when he fell and rolled which triggered the avalanche. The victim was swept nearly completely down the mountain side in a churning torrent of snow. The other skiers in the group descended the mountain and reached the debris field after 20 to 30 minutes. They pinpointed the victims transceiver signal and found him under 3 to 4 feet of snow, and performed CPR for at least an hour without success. The Pitkin County Corner's Office said the victim died from asphyxiation. |
