I came down Quicksilver Sunday morning after 10 am and saw CPR being administered by the Ski Patrol.  Does anyone know what happened?

As I suspected not a lot of info:

"We transfered a 29 year-old-male to Johnsburg EMS, who transferred the patient to Glens Falls Hospital."

A 28 year old guy was found on the trail unconscious. Ski Patrol performed CPR and defibrillated. Johnsburg EMS took him to Glens Falls Hospital. No word on his condition. He had a previous history of heart problems. No apparent crash involved. No word on where he is from.
I Think, Therefore I Ski

The poor guy didn't make it. Don't know if he was DOA by the time he got to the hospital.

 I rode the lift with a guy who witnessed this. He said someone working on him said he had no pulse but they got it back. Good job ski patrol. Sorry to hear he didn't make it. If I have to go what better way than doing something you love.
