He didn’t come under pressure.
A Canadian teenager who got lost during the snowmobile managed to survive in an incredible way by building a snow cave and staying in it until it was discovered.
“This young man did everything right after things went wrong,” wrote South Cariboo Search and Rescue, the nonprofit service that finally found the 17-year-old on Facebook. The accompanying photos show the impressive-looking snow, built by the makeshift survivor and sheltered to the rescue.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the area realized for the first time that something was wrong when they were notified on Saturday night of a backlog of snow engines, according to the department. The boy did not return to the parking lot with the other party members.
At that moment, some snowmobiles started looking for the missing teenager, while others alerted SCSAR. A few hours later, the mounted police received a message from SCSAR that “they located the young man in good condition and were transporting him from the mountain”, according to the police statement.
SCSAR wrote on Facebook that the teenager “separated from his group” and could not find his way out of the country “as he entered it”.
Despite not being familiar with the “land and area,” the man full of appeal “parked his sleigh in a wide open area, went to a nearby wooded area, and built an incredible snow cave.” to spend the night, “they wrote. Rescuers found him inside the frozen hole, with food and water.
SCSAR concluded: “This young man made our task a little more difficult, staying put and having some knowledge of survival in the winter.”
Needless to say, the peanut gallery on Facebook was impressed by the motorcyclist’s ingenuity.
“A great thought of the young man and an excellent teaching of anyone who taught him survival skills,” said a new fan of the future Bear Grylls.
Another wrote: “Whoever taught this young man deserves a medal! Always be prepared for the worst. ”
