Rich Man Mocks Poor Girl on Hiking Trip, an Avalanche Occurs and Only She Can Save Him – Story of the Day
When the local government of California reopened Mount Baldy after several years, tourists and locals alike flocked to the mountain to hike. On one expedition, a poor girl joined a group of rich men when an avalanche suddenly occurred.
Mount Baldy in Los Angeles County, California, is a favorite hiking spot for locals and tourists alike. However, after a series of accidents that happened, the government decided to prohibit hikers from climbing the mountain.

“Peter, why are you so mean to the young woman? Leave her alone,” one of his friends said. Meanwhile, the girl refused to look at him and tried not to pay any attention to the group she was with.
