Lost skier survives five day ordeal in Cascade backcountry
Witkowski, 25, described his five day, four night struggle near Alpental to Harborview Medical Center staff. He lost 20 pounds, his body temperature dropped to 89 degrees, and he drifted between hopelessness and fear of death. He was found five miles from the Alpental ski area after wandering about 10 miles with no food. Doctors expect possible frostbite amputations but anticipate his return to skiing next season. He credited youth and health for his survival.
