In near-whiteout conditions, an advanced ski run at Palisades Tahoe in Northern California turned into a life-saving mission after two skiers spotted a man buried alive in the snow, with just seconds of air. Carson Schmidt, who filmed the incident last week, said he and his friend initially didn't know why they stopped, but they are glad they did. The good Samaritans work at Land Park Ski and Sports in Sacramento and are seasoned skiers and hope the near-death experience captured on video serves as a reminder to always ski with a friend, regardless of the conditions. #ski #california #sacramento #palisadestahoe
