    Re: Stuck in snow storm at Redfern - Need urgent help

    I quess my take on this whole situation is to stay put and build a fire and wait a couple of days for the snow to clear.
    if they do not have sufficient supply's to last a few days they have no business being in there. Sorry to be harsh but
    that is bush reality.f

    Besa River Outfitters is on the trail to Redfern, but it sounds like they never got that far. The forecast is for much warmer starting this afternoon.

    If it is an emergency and just not an inconvenience , call 911, they will determine best action. They may know of a local or call the sar group or use RC's own heli or ........

    I do as well, and it is a good tip...how's it going OP, has SAR been called or another means of rescue?

    This was posted as need for urgent help....hopefully you contacted SAR. 15km through the wet snow and brush without proper gear will likely take 5-6hrs. Hopefully they are out to truck by now or had ability to start fire.

    The CO service in Fort Nelson would know the contact information for the licenced outfitter in that particular Area. The CO service must also be notified in advance of any use of a Helicopter during a Hunting Expedition otherwise Charges could be laid.

    While Piss poor Planning may make for great Adventures, Hunters venturing into remote areas of BC should be expected to make reasonable provisions to cover all eventualities.
