Twenty-five cars were stalled on highway 20 between Orchard and the hill east of Page Saturday. Snow plow equipment worked throughout the night unsnarling the traffic complications. Another result of the storm was the temporary "unknown where abouts" of two Page men who were in the storm Friday. Tony Mudloff, a Verdigre snow plow operator, was stuck between the L G.
