Chris Wong’s iPhone fell out of his pocket while skiing in Vermont. But Wong told BuzzFeed that when he informed ski patrol he'd lost it on a double diamond, they said to come back in the spring.
After fruitlessly searching for the phone with his hands, Chris decided to purchase a metal detector on Amazon and go back a week later to hunt once more.
Upon returning to the mountain, Chris realized how vast this undertaking would be. "This is bigger than I thought it was..." he said.
