WASATCH COUNTY, Utah — Wasatch County Search and Rescue crews were dispatched to rescue a driver who had taken their SUV up a snowmobile trail.

The department sent photos of the Snake Creek trail rescue out on social media Monday night.

Crews were forced out in the elements as heavy snow pounded the area.

The condition of the driver is not known, or why they were driving up a trail that is only to be used by snowmobiles.
