Family Stranded For Three Days In Blizzard
A Wisconsin family from Northridge near Los Angeles spent Christmas trapped by a three day blizzard. Garry Retalan, Mrs Agnes Refsland, Diane and David Refsland, with about 50 other travelers, found shelter in an unfinished motel near Henrys Lake. Milk for the children ran low while a low snowplow finally helped some cars escape. The Kirkpatrick car would not start. Garry secured a ride to West Yellowstone where David Refsland retrieved them on Tuesday. The group then reached Bozeman to clear skies and warming sun, a sight Mrs Kirkpatrick called an experience she would not repeat.
