Crystal and Brady Wade were 50 minutes from a hospital, fighting icy roads in whiteout conditions, when she went into labor.
With her Lake Arrowhead family fighting treacherous roads in whiteout conditions, baby girl “Winter” Wade made her entrance into the world during Blizzard ’23.
As the Wades snaked along icy Rim of the World highway, doctors told them to find the nearest hospital and deliver the baby there. With mama and baby safe and healthy, the Wades got a hotel in Redlands and waited for clearance to go home. Their 4-year-old son was still in Lake Arrowhead, staying with family friends.
