As the morning approaches, drinks are being consumed at a tavern away from the city by the mountain San ﾃ］gel. Among the crowd is Alessandro drinking without care, but being extravagant with people. In the same bar is Elena, a divine and charismatic woman that is also drinking and playing her marvelous guitar. San ﾃ］gel has brought Snowboarders and fans to the winter snowboarding championships. Though, Elena and Alessandro are not there for the championships as they are escaping their jobs and finding relief from their recent fallen relationships. After more drinks, conversations, and music, both Elena and Alessandro come across each other and are quickly displeased with one another. They begin to argue over the simplest topics. Loud yelling and arguing begins to rattle the crowd and causes Elena and Alessandro to be thrown out of the tavern.
The next day, tourist, athletes, and fans gather around the bottom of the San ﾃ］gel Mountain. The mountain is the tallest in Central America measuring over 26,000 feet. The mountain is a monument for recreation, but it is also a sleeping giant volcano. Moreover, the competition starts right away and the people begin to celebrate with the winners of each competition. But the mountain does not celebrate the victors as the crowd and delivers a spontaneous roar followed by a continuous tremble. Then, the sound of a robust boom followed by loud terrifying plates shifting echoed through the mountain slopes, signifying the birth of an avalanche. Luckily, the people at the bottom of the mountain are safe from disaster as the city has solutions for the mountain窶冱 dangers, but the real dangers lie in the snowboarders at the crown of the mountain.

For everyone’s safety, the snowboard athletes were evacuated from San Ángel, but unfortunately some did not make it down the mountain soon enough. The mountain staff ’s radio communication echoes the frustration of the athletes atop of the mountain. Without hesitation Alessandro finds a way to head towards the top of the mountain with his own snowboard to aid the boarders on San Ángel. If it was not enough, Elena also hears the panic from the

people and contacts the city’s helicopter for a search and rescue. With Elena’s warm heart and adventurous attitude, she rides with the helicopter rescue team and takes her snowboard to help with the rescue. Now, both Alessandro and Elena are in search of the athletes, putting their own lives in danger. But once they both reach the top of the mountain, they can’t seem to ignore their differences. Though, they quickly recognize how little time they have to complete their search and rescue and begin to work together. With many mountain challenges and an adrenaline rush, both begin to work well together and start finding the athletes one
by one. The search and rescue and the intensity of the sport awakens a love affair between Elena and Alessandro. As they snowboard down the unsteady mountain, they give each other appealing gestures of interest and attraction. For every foot they descend down the mountain, new boarders are rescued and passion between them both intensifies. That day was a success because Elena and Alessandro were thieves of the mountains ambitions as they rescued the people from the mountain. But it was also the start of a blessing created by love for one another that was brought together by the snowboarding sport.
