Teton County Search and Rescue was called to assist an unidentified male snowmobiler with broken arm near Two Ocean Mountain on Togwotee Pass about noon Wednesday.
Given the accident’s remote location, the team decided to respond with helicopter and snowmobile teams. The helicopter was able to land near the patient, load him into the ship, and fly him to a landing zone near Togwotee Mountain Lodge.
From there, friends transported him to further medical care. Door to door, search and rescue volunteers completed the mission in just under three hours.
