Xi Chen, 53, of Andover, Massachusetts, had been attempting a 'Presidential Traverse' through New Hampshire's White Mountains when he was overcome by the treacherous weather. Chen leaves behind a wife and three kids.

She asked if she should call rescue and he responded,"Yes, could die."

"I text him, call or text 911 so they'll know where you are from your phone. No response," Liu recalled.Rescuers endured driving rain, blowing snow, and winds gusting to over 80 mph to reach Chen on Gulfside Trail Saturday night. The 53-year-old Andover resident was unresponsive and suffering from severe hypothermia, but he still had signs of life.

"He's not a quitter, that probably actually got him into trouble this time," Liu said with a break in her voice.
