  1. Thanks to Gove Bill Richardson (NM) and our CO governer, Bill Ritter, for ordering out National Guard support and other support to continue the search for Michael and Kyle.
    I pray for a miracle and thoughts and prayers go out to all of their family and friends who must be worried sick.
    Question: Has there been any activity on either one’s cell phone since Friday?

    Question: Did they pay for their passes with credit card? Can’t Wolf Creek at least track their passes that were scanned showing time and lift location? It’s a start…

    I do pray for a miracle.

    When they are not finding them soon, it can good be there is a snow avalanches or gletsher slit involved to them missing. Why don’t used they snow avalanches dogs?
