Default The Dodge Got Stuck

Was fishing at Swan lake on Saturday and I saw a black Dodge pickup punch through the top layer of flood ice. The truck was way out on the ice, going pretty fast, and the front end punched through followed by the rear end. Looked like it sank right up to the chassis, when he'd try to move water was flying but the truck wasn't moving.

I'm wondering if anyone was out there and knows if they got out? No one out there was about to drive out and help, I'm surprised there were others who drove on the lake. The ice is weak and thin this year, I saw in another post there's a pickup that's been stuck half in the ice at Snipe Lake since last week!

Well on a recovery note. Call the guys a Brooks towing. They know what they are doing compare to anyone in Alberta. And they do what they say

Great guys to deal with

Brooks is probably nine hours from Swan lake though. Unless there is a Brooks Towing in the North?
