Over three hundred people were stranded at a climate action conference due to a heavy snowstorm near Big Bear. Attendees at YMCA Camp Whittle attempted to walk to clear roads but were met with significant snowfall. Firefighters, noticing the situation, helped the attendees by offering warmth at their station and figuring out how to assist the stuck buses. As daylight faded and supplies ran low, firefighters utilized a snow cat to transport attendees to safety amidst challenging blizzard conditions.
"Within a few minutes, we had a couple hundred people standing in a blizzard in front of our station, waiting to get on these buses that were getting stuck..."
"They opened up Station 96 and let people warm up as Muscarello and his colleagues tried to help figure out the best way for the seven buses to get down the mountain."
