According to authorities, the skier-a male visitor from Colorado's Front Range-was discovered by fellow guests, who immediately began CPR and contacted emergency services. Keystone Ski Patrol responded quickly and administered advanced life-saving measures at the scene before transporting the skier to a nearby helicopter landing zone. The individual was then airlifted by Flight for Life to CommonSpirit St. Anthony Summit Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead."
"The Summit County Sheriff's Office confirmed that the skier was wearing a helmet at the time he was found. According to Keystone Resort's website, The Grizz run is currently open but not groomed. No further details surrounding the circumstances of the incident have been released, and the investigation remains ongoing. Summit County Sheriff Jaime FitzSimons issued a statement offering condolences to those affected. "Our hearts go out to the family and friends affected by this tragic loss," FitzSimons said."
