Card 1
Romanian Avalanche
In 2003, a British politics student named Ken Jones
took a holiday from his studies and traveled to
Romania, where he wanted to scale Moldoveanu
Peak. He almost made it to the summit when the earth
shook and a pair of avalanches dumped tons of snow
on top of him, trapping him helpless on the mountain.
He managed to walk ten miles through the freezing
cold over the next three days to a remote
Transylvanian village, where a local doctor saved his
leg and his life.
