This is the local news which ran a VERY brief segment tonight on this tragedy!

This i s a link to the article the newspaper from his city ran today!

I dont think the gentlemen was a NS'r but anyone in our community deserves a sendoff!

As a someone who has lived at sugarloaf i feel for the community, its pretty tight knit, this is the kinda things thats hard on everyone involved!
Sincerest condolences to his family!
I can only hope hes slaying turns in the white room somehwere!

SKI IN PEACE

"Lopez said Colvin, who wasn’t wearing a helmet, lost control on the black-diamond Hayburner trail and struck several trees in the woods. A LifeFlight helicopter was activated and was canceled after he was pronounced dead."

Lopez is the police chief at Sugarloaf...

They called for the chopper as they were putting him in the sled, and called off the chopper as they got him to ski patrol, must have been pretty bad...
Its the thrid death at Sugarloaf in 3 years,

I hope there won't be any issues with Sugarloaf staying open because if any of you guys have read the Terms and Conditions, you basically sign your life away. RIP to Steven
