Anyone remember who helped move the plane off the lake? Don Huefner was part of the Rich County Search and Rescue. There were about 15 snowmobiles which pulled the plane to shore. The pilot had some trouble on his way to Jackson Hole and decided to land on the field??? Some of the group decided to walk towards lights they saw and when they got almost to the shore they broke through the ice and then tried rolling the rest of the way. They were very cold. The person who had stayed with the plane got cold as he was only wearing a T-shirt so he started walking towards lights he saw in Laketown. When the snowmobile S&R team found him he had hypothermia. Just so grateful that the lake was 22 inches thick that winter.
