4 Lost Familiy Members Found In Nor Cal Mtns

[BajaMike]

It was just announced on Fox News, that the four familiy members, lost since Sunday in the woods and snow near Inskip/Sterling City, CA (east of Chico), have been found, and are being evacuated by helicopter to a school near Paradise, CA.

They went up there from Sacramento to cut down a Christmas tree....they had on tennis shoes and light jackets....it wasn't snowing when they left home, and their truck was found with no snow under it (meaning when they parked it hadn't started snowing).

Unless they found a cabin to stay in, they must have had 3 cold nights...they have had 3 or 4 feet of snow up there since Sunday.

Glad they are OK.

:hmm

Glad they are ok and everything turned out alright.

On Fox News right now, they are showing the two kids landing in a CHP helicopter at a school in Sterling City, CA.

They walked off the chopper and looked fine. The father and older child are due in on the next helicopter.

They probably wish they were in the BVI......

The helicopter went back to get the dad and oldest son.....It turns out they have spent the last 3 nights in a storm drain, and ventured out to write "HELP" in the snow....and left one of the kids hats by the "HELP" sign....that's how they found them.:hmm
