Zinne was fatally injured Monday when he fell from the Triple Chair at the ski resort during what officials said was a period of gusty winds.
He was flown by emergency helicopter from the area to a Billings hospital.
Several other skiers were assisted off the lift with ropes after the lift was shut down.
The chair lift has remained closed while the incident is investigated.
A GoFundMe has been set up to help Zinne's family.
