He wrote that he was the first to start skiing and Hilaree joined him after a few turns. At that point, a small avalanche broke loose.

She was thrown off her feet and carried nearly 5,000 feet down a steep snow slope on the south side of the mountain, the opposite direction of the ascent.

Although he tried everything, he could not find her. He wanted to find her alive so they could spend the rest of their lives together.
