Rescued Celebrity Skiers -- Luck Saved Their Asspen

Chad Lowe, along with actors Rob Morrow, Fisher Stevens and Kim Painter averted a freezing cold disaster this weekend when they accidentally skied off course -- and into a rescue attempt already in progress in the Aspen Mountain Ski Area.

According to Pitkin County Sheriff's Office, the foursome dangerously trekked "out of ski area," after participating in a celebrity ski race earlier in the day. Fortunately for the group, they got "lost" in the same exact spot as a snowboarder named Chris Roberts, who had already phoned his sister for help. Robert's sister immediately alerted Aspen Ski Patrol.

While Ski Patrol pinpointed his location and planned the best course of rescue action, Lowe's group wandered into the very same restricted area. A short time later, the actors, along with Roberts, "met up with Ski Patrollers" and skied down to safety together.

The group was transported to the Pitkin County Sheriff's Office office for questioning. No one was injured during the incident.

1. Good thing they bumped into the rescue party. Otherwise no one else would have ever realized they were missing. What were they doing? Shooting a pilot for a Z-list'er reality show about skiing? ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz

3. Just glad everyone is safe and sound - we have had way too many tragic accidents which all resulted in a loss of life despite ongoing rescue efforts!!! So hopefully, they will all be careful in the future. Rob Morrow - should know better (playing actor FBI) .....I love the show Numb3rs and I fully expect to see continued success with the show including him as a lead character!!

6. Who the hell are these people?
The only name I recognize is Chad Lowe & only because Hilliary Swank
cheated on him while they were married.
Oh...and he has a brother Rob Lowe who made a sex tape w/
several celebrities & I think underage girls many, many years ago.

What a hell of a life...if the man had died & I had to give his eulogy....sad..sad...
