The 28-year-old hiker had called 911 to report that "his limbs were frozen, he was hypothermic, and could no longer move through the several feet of snow." Also, over 170 rescued after lift at ski resort cracks. A weekend on the slopes turned into hours of hanging above the ground after a gondola lift malfunctioned in Colorado over the weekend. While nobody died in either of these incidents, cold weather deaths rising among Americans. An uptick in cold snaps, along with other possible factors, has been linked to a doubling of U.S. deaths from freezing temperatures since 1999, according to new research.
