He would have died, along with the other members of the Fellowship. If not for Boromir's strength and determination on Caradhras (helped by Aragorn) the Fellowship would have died on the mountain. Well, maybe not Legolas, who could simply walk on the snow. I find it doubtful, however, that Legolas would have been able to save all eight other members in doing this, regardless of his elven strength. If this was the case, he would have done so instead of letting Boromir and Aragorn tread paths with their bodies while he ran off in joy to "find the sun".
Also, as others have pointed out, if Boromir had not tried to take the Ring, the events that proceeded would never have been put into motion.
