Snowmobiler Rescued
Three agencies – Air Med, Spanish Fork Fire, and Search and Rescue – cooperated in the rescue of a 75 year old man who was injured while riding a snowmobile without a helmet in the Wan Rhodes area of Diamond Fork. The man apparently accidentally hit the throttle and ran into a tree.
Rescuers rode snowmobiles eight miles to the scene of the accident, treated the man for injuries, and transported him to the helicopter which was able to land nearby.
