This Snowboarder Was Rescued After He Hit a Cliff In British Columbia and Nearly Drowned in Powder

Winter is here. People are getting powder turns all over North America. And it’ll only get deeper. But this is why it’s better to have friends on a powder day. In video taken a little over a year and a half ago, this guy hesitantly hits a small cliff at a resort somewhere in British Columbia and nearly meets his end. He absolutely disappears. But his buddy, who was filming on a GoPro quickly digs him out. This can happen when riding any type of tool, be it skis or snowboards. In deep powder, or a tree well. Best to ride with friends.
