Comments
4th skier on slope, a splitboarder, caught, carried, and injured from a tree strike. When the debris settled, the splitboarder was able to sit upright with torso unburied, though feet and board were buried. Another skier lower down was pushed by the toe of the debris and lost skis, which were recovered.
