In Khakassia, snowboarders dug out a guide caught in an avalanche
39-year-old freeride guide Igor Lysenko was caught in an avalanche near the village of Priiskovoye in Khakassia while scouting a route for his group. Colleagues dug him out from under a meter of snow within 10–15 minutes; according to him, without quick help he would not have survived. No one was injured, and the group continued riding.
