On January 7, 2025, at approximately 11:12 AM, Idaho County Dispatch received a text to 911 from a caller advising that there was a snowmobile crash near Rudd Moore Lake.

Dispatch contacted Two Bear Air out of Flathead County, MT and requested they attempt to rescue the injured party, as weather conditions made flight questionable. Rudd Moore Lake is in the back country near the Idaho/Montana border. Dispatch also contacted Ravalli County SAR in case a ground rescue was necessary.

At 2:18 PM, dispatch confirmed Two Bear Air was able to rescue the injured snowmobiler and transported him to Missoula, MT.

Special thanks to Two Bear Air for rescuing the patient and Ravalli County SAR for preparing themselves for deployment.
