More about the film: In the early 1980s, the Alpine Meadows Ski Patrol were the undisputed gods of winter in the mountain hamlet of Tahoe City, California, and they were guided by a newly minted avalanche forecaster named Jim Plehn. The responsibility to keep the skiing public safe on these avalanche-prone mountains was an all-consuming obsession for Jim, which made the day of March 31, 1982 all the more devastating. When millions of pounds of snow hurtled down the side of the mountain, demolishing the resort’s base lodge and burying the parking lot, the shell-shocked patrol team had to persevere under unrelenting weather conditions to rescue seven missing victims, hoping desperately for a miracle.
