When my cousin worked in Ski patrol in Steamboat in Colorado they found the skeletal remains of a guy who disappeared in 1993.

That's such a badass job. I'd never qualify, but i'd love it.

I ski pretty well, but the rescuing people thing I have limited experience.

He has some crazy fucking stories, he rescued two Japanese skiers in white out conditions once.

The craziest thing i've ever seen is a blind kid shredding it. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it.

Those tree wells are nothing to mess with.

So in other words from 2001 until today that glacier was growing and covered up his body.
