Overnight temperatures in the area dipped below zero Fahrenheit.

Separately, three other skiers who became lost were located near Pico Mountain ski area on Monday morning.

Damn, I think all of this snow is making people go a little to far off the trail

wow that is bad news. With these temps and windchills that does not bode well for that guy. Never ride alone off trail people.

Hope they find him and he is ok

Dayum, any updates? I'll be heading up to Killington on Thursday. Thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. Hope they fid him.

I think he was found on Monday.

A skier from New Jersey who had been missing since Sunday was found unharmed Monday afternoon, the Vermont State Police said.

Gustavo Oascar Iriarte, 45, of Lyndhurst was one of seven skiers who became lost Sunday in three incidents across the state.

Nothing had been heard from Iriarte since about 6:30 p.m. Sunday until he was found on a snowmobile trail in Mendon at about 1:30 p.m. Monday. He told authorities he was fine except for cold toes and hands and was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center for evaluation, police said.

He was at the Wobbly Barn tipping a few...avoiding the lift lines at Killy.
