You can't fix stupid.


Who the F goes out & is that stupid on the first day of the year?

Fortunately, snowmobiling is one of the few activities where Darwinism is allowed to play out.

Already? This isn't a good start to the season....

Creek or other water hazard I am guessing? Hopefully they find the last guy soon.

Not a good start! Assuming they all 3 were together and 2 rescued one still missing, it shows you ALWAYS stay together.

**edit, I found a guys sled once in the deep of some trees (just handlebars sticking out) I notified S&R and got them on the right path. Fortunately he was found that night (2 nights out already). He was a lone sledder that told his group he would go and get gas and return. More and more stories I hear have same thing in common... Always the guy that goes alone has the troubles.

Sooooo, does this mean there's enough snow to sled on up there? Maybe I'll have to go "help" S&R.

Hope they find him.

Not snowmobilers - hunters. They changed the story.

65 year old and a 9 year old missing right now.

^^^That sounds more like it. I got 10" at 7500' about 15 miles east of those hills. They prolly got 2 feet on the roads. Not enough to loade em up, but enough to foul up un-prepared hunters. Could have got in a rutted road ride up there

My place Fri.

All found now.

Usual media BS, they couldn't get a story straight if you gave it to them on a teleprompter.
