San Francisco Man Rescued After Skiing Out of Bounds at Kirkwood

Kirkwood, CA...On the evening of February 10th, the Amador County Sheriff's Office received a report that 34-year-old Mihayl Petkov of San Francisco was in a remote location east of Silver Lake and needed help. Petkov had gone skiing at Kirkwood and went out of bounds off the back side of the mountain. He attempted to ski to safety, but fell in the powder and was unable to reattach his skis. After hiking in several feet of snow until dark, he was able to send a message from his phone asking for friends to call for help. Amador Search and Rescue personnel responded with snowmobiles and a snowcat provided by PG&E, but they were unable to access Petkov due to the dangerous conditions at night. A CHP Helicopter responded and located Petkov, but was also unable to access him. The following morning, the snowmobiles, the snowcat, and the helicopter made a second rescue attempt, this time accompanied by Kirkwood Ski Patrol. This time, the CHP helicopter was able to find a safe place to land and transported Petkov back to Kirkwood.





The Amador County Sheriff's Office would like to thank CHP, Kirkwood Ski Patrol, and PG&E for their help in making this a successful mission.

A few notes on safety: If you are skiing at a resort, stay within the boundaries. If you are recreating in the backcountry do not go by yourself. Always be prepared for the worst. If you find yourself in a bad situation, rescuers might not be able to get to you right away.

Seems as though there is always someone who doesn't get the memo. Thank goodness he has been found and is safe now.

          I agree. We also need to make sure you guys pay for everything in your county and are self-sufficient. Definitely lower any hospital costs and probably time to close those roads over the winter and ask people to move somewhere flatter. No need to waste money shoveling too much.

From San Fransicko. Most likely illegal, can't read or speak English.

The planet is over populated. We all wait in traffic and stand in lines everywhere. Pandemics will come more and more because of people crammed together.

It is past time to stop saving people from themselves. We do not need to drag along, nanny and pay for all the simpletons, who just make the rest of our lives harder.
