On December 30th 2023, Gallatin County Dispatch received a call for two injured snowmobilers on Buck Ridge. Both patients were involved in a snowmobile crash and sustained injuries. Canyon Adventures snowmobile guides were in the area and responded to assist the injured riders.
Gallatin County Sheriff Search and Rescue volunteers from the Big Sky Section responded to Buck Ridge and deployed a snowmobile rescue team immediately up the trail.
With the help of Canyon Adventures, both snowmobilers were transported to a waiting Big Sky Fire Ambulance. Care of both patients was transferred to Big Sky Fire Department personnel.
Sherriff Dan Springer would like to thank all of the individuals who assisted the injured riders, especially the Canyon Adventures guides, whose quick action was vital in guaranteeing the most positive outcome possible.
