UPDATE: Skier Who Died After Avalanche Remembered As ‘Always Cheerful’
PLACER COUNTY (CBS13) – A skier who died after an avalanche in the Tahoe
National Forest on Thursday afternoon has now been identified.
The Nevada County Coroner says the skier who died in 29-year-old Benjamin
Brackett of Olympic Valley.
The incident occurred 500 vertical feet below Stanford Rock off Highway 89
near the backside of Alpine Meadows in the Ward Valley area of Placer County
. Brackett was transported to Tahoe Forest Hospital in Truckee in critical
condition and later pronounced dead.
Benjamin Brackett
Brackett reportedly suffered a broken leg but the cause of his death wasn’t
immediately available. Paramedics reportedly were performing CPR on him
before arriving at the hospital.
Brackett was with two other skiers when the avalanche occurred. First
reports had said the avalanche was caused as the skiers “skinned” up the
mountain, a process of climb with skis.
However, the Sierra Avalanche Center, which has a detailed account of the
fatal avalanche on their website, says Brackett first triggered a slab
avalanche about one foot deep when he began skiing down the mountain.
It says he was able to stop himself from being taken down the slope by
grabbing a tree. However, the avalanche then grew deeper sweeping him down
the slope and burying him.
According to the report: “His partners skied down, saw a ski protruding
from the snowpack, and used their beacons to locate the buried skier. The
avalanche buried the skier about three feet deep and wrapped him around some
trees. It took them about 3 minutes to get to their buried partner.”
Deputies were notified of the incident at 2:50 p.m. At 3 p.m., rescuers from
the Tahoe Nordic Search and Rescue team equipped with a Snowcat and two
snowmobiles began their search for Brackett.
An official with Squaw Valley says Brackett has worked at the resort since
2008 in their food and beverage department.
“I did not know Ben personally but what I understand from my co-workers is
he was just one of those people who always had a smile on his face, always
really cheerful,” said Julie Maurer of Squaw Valley. “I know that our
guests loved him. We always had lots of great comments from the guests
about him.”
Brackett was originally from Keene, New Hampshire. |

极小。雪场一般都密切注意雪况,在有雪崩危险时人为制造雪崩来化解危险。

d*****d 发帖数: 2449 | 9 带了。第一天把他扔在ski school, 我们自己滑雪去了。本来还担心他会找妈妈,结果
人家快活得很,第二天还要去。$165一天还是太贵了,所以第二天我们(主要是LD)带
他在魔毯那里滑了好多趟。
本来挺担心膝盖受不了,在住的地方爬楼梯都疼,结果滑起来到不太觉得。

d*****d 发帖数: 2449 | 19 Heavenly有三种program, day care, half half, ski school。day care includes 1
hour skiing, half half 2 hours, ski school full day.
day care 3 years old, half half and ski school for 4 years old in theory. So
the instructor was joking "Albert is less than 4 years old, so you won't
get refund if he didn't have fun"
那些老师挺有经验的,而且又有别的小朋友,小人们个个兴高采烈。而且因为要轮着滑
,也不是那么累。第二天我们自己带,两趟小人就不干了,吵着要堆雪人。不过后来我
们装上了ski clip,就是把滑雪板的前端连在一起,小人滑起来就容易多了,兴趣又上
来了,滑了好多趟,后来累得都走不动了。
还碰到头一天的一个教练,她说三四岁的小孩生理上很难内八字,所以学起来比较困难
,对他们来讲倒着滑更容易。ski clip作用很大。

d*****d 发帖数: 2449 | 24 石头有志气!有一次乐乐想不用,我说,你现在滑得不太好,这可以帮你不摔交,但你
要不想用那我们就不用,结果小人立马说,要!后来每次问他都说要,让我想检验一下
学习成果的阴谋没能得逞。
