Dog trapped in avalanche is rescued by college students on skiing trip
A pair of skiers are proving that there are still surely plenty of kind-hearted people out there. The two skiers dug their hearts-out as they were on a rescue-mission to find and save a dog who had gotten swept away by an avalanche, and found himself trapped and buried underneath a massive pile of snow.
Colorado-School-of-Mines students, Bobby White and Josh Trujillo were backcountry skiing near Berthoud Pass in Colorado. On December 26, 2021, when they saw an avalanche terrifyingly occur nearby. The incident ended up trapping a man’s dog by the name of Apollo.



“While White and Trujillo were backcountry skiing, they witnessed an avalanche nearby.” According to The Hill, they encountered a man by the name of Scott Shepherd who told the pair that his group had veered-off course, and his dog named Apollo had gotten swept away by the avalanche. ABC 7 reported that Apollo was actually the one who triggered the avalanche, and ended up getting swept away by the snowdrift over a cliff and through several trees.

The two students quickly set-off into action, searching for the missing pup as they used their ski-poles to poke at and probe the piles upon piles of fallen snow and debris. Nearby skiers also joined in the rescue mission, doing everything they could to try and find Apollo and save him from the mountains of snow. The college students scoured the area for almost half-an-hour before finally finding the area where Apollo was buried. All that was left to do was dig him out.
