A 77-year-old man was rescued after spending two days in his pickup truck stuck in a snowbank along a remote Oregon forest road this week.
The man was driving in the southern Oregon Cascades about 10 miles from the town of Prospect when he attempted to turn around in a large snowbank, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office. Instead, his truck became stuck, and hours stranded in the snow soon became days. He was reported missing early Thursday morning, and rescue crews sent a Snowcat into the woods just before 2 a.m. looking to find him. He was located about six hours later still in his truck “in good spirits with a mild case of hypothermia,” the sheriff’s office said.Another family stuck in snow in Oregon Cascades rescuedPrevious
