Great work to the Clackamas Deputies for rescuing the family.

Please check the weather, and pack an emergency essentials bag like a warm blanket and water for example. We hope the family is doing well and let this be a reminder to others to ALWAYS BE PREPARED! More importantly, please be safe out there!
