Colorado Snowboarder Connor Gill Missing What We Know So Far

A snowboarder named Connor Gill vanished at a ski resort in Colorado, sparking a big search on Valentine’s Day. Connor is 26 years old, authorities say, and visited Vail Mountain when he disappeared.

Connor Gill is from near Denver, about 100 miles from Vail. He is six feet tall with brown hair and brown eyes. He wore an orange ski suit with blue parts on the top that day and used a Salomon snowboard.

Connor was last seen around 9 AM on Friday, February 14, headed toward the Avanti route area. His snowboarding partner alerted ski patrol around 3:15 PM that afternoon, and Vail Communication Center learned of the missing man by 4:30 PM.

Vail Mountain Rescue team and Vail Ski Patrol responded, looking near his last known location and the area he often snowboarded. Vail Police are also helping with the case.

A snowstorm occurred around the time he went missing, with over two feet of snow falling in some areas of Vail Mountain.
