Great work to the SAR teams for rescuing the skier. It's very important to always be prepared for situations like this one in case you get lost. Whether it be skiing during the winter season or hiking on a warm, beautiful day, it's best to pack a prepared kit of essentials such as a water bottle, a blanket, etc. We hope the man is doing well and as always, please be safe out there!
