Two overdue ATV riders were safely located yesterday morning by Deer Lake Ground Search and Rescue. RCMP Cpl Jolene Garland says shortly after midnight on Thursday they received a call about two missing individuals who were travelling on a side-by-side and became stuck on a trail near Pynn’s Brook. Initially, the individuals were within cell service but eventually communication was lost. Deer Lake Ground Search and Rescue (GSAR) was deployed and searched along the trail between Pynn’s Brook and Deer Lake. Garland says the riders were located cold but otherwise safe. She says with the upcoming Victoria Day long weekend kicking off the summer season, ATV operators are reminded to be prepared and travel safely. It is also important to share your intended travel location and expected return time, and pack the necessary provisions such as food, water and extra clothing, in the event it is needed.
