Storm Response: On Nov. 20 at 9 a.m., Forest Ranger Lieutenant
Hogan and Rangers Benzel, Evans, and Hanno
responded with Lewis County Emergency Management to help two Diana area
residents stranded in a storm that accumulated approximately six feet of
snow. One of the two had experienced a cardiac issue. The Long Pond
Snowmobile Club used its groomer to break a trail for DEC's tracked SUV. At
10:45 a.m., Rangers reached the subject, who was in stable condition, and
helped him into a Lewis County Search and Rescue ambulance. His companion
followed the ambulance to the hospital. Rangers also assisted a third
subject trapped in a hunting camp approximately four miles from a plowed
road.
