Snowboarder Trace Jordan Carrillo, 28, from Dubois, Wyoming died Wednesday, April 1, 2020 in a slide on Taylor Mountain near Teton Pass, in Wyoming, according to a story in the Jackson Hole News and Guide.
The man started to ski the slope just before 3 p.m. when the slide broke, Lockhart said. . . After an unsuccessful search his female ski partner went to the Coal Creek parking area west of Teton Pass and borrowed a cell phone to call for help. . .”We sent rescuers up and down Taylor and couldn’t get a beacon signal,” Lockhart said. . . A helicopter search wasn’t an option because of low visibility. . . Rescuers called off the search at dark Wednesday night but will resume looking for the man Thursday morning, Lockhart said.
Carrillo’s body was found Thursday morning reportedly under two feet of snow. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and especially the girl who was riding with him at the time of the slide.
