I guess the little camera is 5 years old or so... but last week skiing
at 11K feet it worked fine for 2 days then it crapped out.

This thing is dead like someone took the batteries out... press the on
button and nothing happens. (Yes, I tested good batteries.) I'm not
used to things dying so abruptly, they usually give you a hint.

Anyway, just wondering what it could be and if there was anything to
gain by taking the cover off and messing with it?


Yeah, electronics can croak like that. It might have been ESD
when you are out skiing. Lots of synthetic fabrics and no
humidity, you can build up big static charges.

There are outfits that will fix these cameras for $50 or so.
