This accident was just a quarter of a mile or so west of Grandma's house! And it made the news! The fog was so thick this morning! You could barely see 10 feet in front of you.

School bus crashes in Box Elder County;
road concerns delay schools
Several children are being treated for minor injuries after a school bus collided with a pickup truck on a foggy road in Box Elder County. Box Elder School District Superintendent Ron Wolff said bus No. 2201 was about two-thirds full and headed to Century Elementary when it crashed head-on into the pickup on state Route 13 near 2400 North around 8 a.m. He said speeds were relatively low. Medical personnel treated the affected children for minor injuries. Wolff said three students were taken to the Brigham City Hospital for further examination. The drivers were not injured. He also said the pickup did not have its lights on at the time of the crash.
Paged out at 0745 for a BUS vs PICK-UP TRUCK.
My EMS partner and I arrived on scene @ 0802 - command had already been set up; police were there; We were directed to a house where the 30 children had been triaged. First peds call for me - and there were 30 of them! Brigham and Tremonton were paged out as well. It was nice to have so much help on scene!
January 23, 2013 : -9 degrees F
On Jan 23 at 0417 paged for a 2 car accident. One vehicle had run a stop sign and t-boned the other driver. Both drivers were fine. The most memorable aspect of this call was it was -9 degrees Fahrenheit. Too cold!
