ABSTRACT:
A ski beeper which is an electronic device to assist a skier in locating skis buried beneath snow as a result of becoming detached from ski boots. The ski beeper is mounted to the ski in a position where the ski boot depresses an activator button on the device. In the event the ski boot releases from the binding and ski, the spring loaded activator button raises and in turn causes the beeper to become activated thus alerting the skier of the position of the ski. Alternatively, the ski beeper may be integrated into the heel plate of a ski brake with the beeper device becoming activated as the ski brake lifts away from the ski.
