KILLINGTON — A second man has died of apparent natural causes after collapsing on a ski slope.
Vermont State Police said Walter E. Gorgas, 80, of Wappinger Falls, New York, collapsed at the “Header” trail at Killington Ski Resort at around 2:30 p.m. He was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center, police said, where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
Police said there was no indication that Gorgas had — an experienced skier and an instructor at the resort — collided with anything and that his death appeared to be “a natural event.”
Gorgas’ death comes just two days after William P. Cusano, 65, of Lagrangeville, New York, died after collapsing on an unidentified intermediate trail. Similarly, Cusano was described as an experienced skier and there was no indication he had collided with anything.
