Engagement Ring Falls into Snow at Boyne Mountain Resort

A man, Trevor Van Kamp, experienced an unexpected event while preparing to propose to his girlfriend, Danielle Jenkins. He chose to propose on the SkyBridge at Boyne Mountain Resort, a place Jenkins admired, but as he knelt, the ring slipped from his hands and fell into the snow from a height of 36 meters. The couple, initially panicked, decided to try and find the ring. With the help of the resort staff, particularly night supervisor Pat Harper, who used a metal detector, the ring was located after 20-30 minutes of searching. The recovery of the ring saved the couple from having to buy a new one, and they plan to return to the resort to share their story.
