They ran out of fuel.

I guess we pay the bill.

That's strange. The news article said they haven't released the names. They've released the names in all of the news articles around here, since about 6am yesterday morning. Probably just didn't hit the news department for all the info.

Glad they found them. We have another storm moving in tonight and tomorrow. Supposed to really be nasty by tomorrow evening.

@WyoNewk....Thank you Thanks to the owner of the Big Lodge Resort this had a happy ending. @Happy....I agree, shame it was all for a reason like running out of gas...but thankfully they were found. Wonder if it wouldn't b prudent to require safety courses for snow mobile owners....Sure hear of a lot of accidents etc.

I fail to see what good a safety course would do? They didn't have an accident, they ran out of gas. Hell, I took drivers ed, but sure enough, I've run out of gas since then.

Glad it worked out well in the end. Been watching the weather news for Wyoming. Saw a lot of snow on the way for the Big Horn mountains.

Agreed. But you would think at least one of those people would have thought about it.

The Weather Channel said Sheridan got 1.3 inches of snow in the past 24 hours.

I must be losing it. I could have sworn I plowed 4-6 inches yesterday morning...
