    Missing skier at Powder Mountain

    Anyone hear anything about this? Just saw a thing on the news saying that someone went missing but they didn't have much info about it. Apparently some guy left the resort, and didn't come back.

    It was a solid moderate day in the BC...Hope this isn't our first victim of the year.
    "JONG!!!!!" is the sound a lift tower makes when a gaper runs into it.
    -Observed at Brighton, UT

    Days on snow 2007/2008 season
    Backcountry: 11
    Lift served: 11

    Happens all the time at Powder Mountain, it happened twice last week. Mostly since it's an 'upside down' resort (lodge and parking lot on top). As far as the avalanche thing, not a whole lot of avy terrain around there.

    Been here 6 years and it does seem like an annual event. Lots of sucker tracks when you are skiing the road/bus and ducking ropes. At least it is a warm night to get lost!?!
