Three college students, childhood friends Dan and Joe, and Dan's girlfriend Parker, spend a Sunday afternoon at a ski resort. Not wanting to pay full price for three ski lift tickets, Dan convinces Parker to bribe the ski lift attendant to let them all on the ski lift. On the way up, the ski lift shuts down, but starts back up after a minute. After spending all afternoon skiing, the guys are eager to take one last run down the mountain before they go home. However, it is now evening, and the ski resort decides to close early because a storm is moving in.

The friends remind the ski lift attendant of the bribe and convince him to let them on the ski lift one last time. At this point the resort is almost deserted. Before the group gets all the way to the top, the attendant is called into the boss's office and is replaced by a co-worker. As he leaves, the old attendant tells his co-worker that there are only three skiers left and then the ski lift can be shut down. Another set of three skiers comes down the mountain. When the new attendant sees them he shuts down the ski lift, stranding the friends in their ski lift chair far above the ground.

The friends are initially annoyed, and then scared. They assume that the power will eventually come back on. Night has come and a snow storm moves in. After a while, a snowcat comes along and it seems as if the driver is about to see them. However, at the last second, the driver is called back to base. After several hours, the friends realize that no one is coming to get them and that they could be stuck up there all week, as the resort is closed on weekdays. Parker then loses her right glove while smoking. Dan realizes he has no choice but to jump from the ski lift chair and get help, as they will not survive up there in the bitter cold until Friday.

Dan jumps off the lift onto a hard section of the ski path, breaking his legs. Dan is approached by a wolf who growls at him and then runs away. Joe, now fearing for Dan's safety, decides to climb up and traverse the ski lift cable so that he can get to a chair that is closer to the ground. However, after traversing a few feet, he returns to his chair and holds Parker, preventing her from watching the scene below. Dan has now been surrounded by a pack of wolves who devour him as he screams in agony.

In the morning, Parker wakes up with her right hand stuck to the ski lift safety bar. She pulls it free, losing skin in the process. In addition, she has developed a bad case of frostbite on her face. After a few hours, Joe climbs up, traverses the ski lift cable, and this time safely climbs down the ladder of a support pole two chairs back. At the same time, the Parker's ski lift chair begins tipping as it has started to loosen from its supporting cable. After fighting off a pair of wolves, Joe slides down the mountain on Parker's snowboard. The wolves return and chase him.

Another night passes and no one has showed up to help Parker. She now realizes that something has happened to Joe. She begins to attempt a jump down herself, but the bolt holding the lift chair falls and the chair drops several feet but is caught by a supporting cable. Suddenly, her ski lift chair begins dropping more as its supporting cable begins to shred. Parker jumps down, now from a fairly safe height, but is hobbled after the lift chair falls on her ankle. Parker then crawls down the mountain, pausing when she notices a streak of blood in the snow and is then approached by a wolf. After sizing her up, the wolf returns to the nearby pack, who are occupied: apparently finishing off Joe's remains. Parker makes it the rest of the way down the mountain, to the highway, where she is eventually picked up by a passing driver and taken to a local hospital. There is no doubt that Parker, and Dan and Joe's families are going to sue the ski resort.
