Thunder Meadows cabin
A skier was reported missing by his girlfriend in Mexico as he had not checked in with her. The girlfriend indicated he was with a group staying at the Thunder Meadows backcountry ski cabin. The response was delayed until first light when Fernie SAR sent a team via helicopter to the Thunder Meadows cabin where they located the group having breakfast. The group did have a Delorme personal locator beacon and had sent a check in message the previous night but for some reason it had not made it to the girlfriend in Mexico.
