“I screamed in desperation”: snowboarder stuck in ski gondola overnight. “I don’t know how something like this could happen,” a spokeswoman for the fire department told the station.
The holidaymaker was on a winter vacation with her friends at the Heavenly Mountain Resort in the US state of California. The authorities are now investigating how the woman ended up stuck in the gondolas in sub-zero temperatures. The temperatures around the freshwater lake Lake Tahoe are currently falling well below freezing at night.
