Northern Manitoba: Six people in two vehicles were stranded in heavy snow, at -30 C with winds to 80 kph. It appears they had proper clothing but very limited gear otherwise. No cell phone coverage. They used the larger vehicle with a few candles for shelter. Two of them walked to a communications tower, broke into the shed, found an emergency phone and some survival supplies.
