Amputee praises deer season after four days stranded
Milton Collier a 72 year old amputee from Withee spent four days in a woods ordeal after his car bogged on a logging road near Neillsville. He survived by alternating between his wheelchair and the car using paper towels for warmth and was rescued by Pete Palmer and Paul Pleckacek who found his wheelchair and guided him to a roadside tavern. He plans to hunt again this fall saying he is fit as a fiddle with a bow and deer rifle ready.
