Premise

[edit]

Rick (Ed Marinaro) is not having a good day. His small ski resort is going bankrupt and the investors have pulled out. His resort manager is drunk. His young, beautiful and possibly unfaithful wife is buried alive in an ice tomb. And last, but not least, an avalanche is going to bury the lodge if he doesn't disarm seven bombs in less than two hours. But it's a great day for snowboarding.

Reception

[edit]

In Ski Films: A Comprehensive Guide, author Bryan Senn writes, "unlike some ski films...this one takes the avalanche issue seriously and portrays it realistically.[2]
