A number of individuals were ice fishing near the harbor when 30 mph winds began to break the ice apart. All but two men made it to shore safely. That is when the four Ashland firefighters, led by Lt. Walters, used the department's Ice Angel to navigate the waters to save the two men. The crew braved 12 foot waves and near white-out conditions to bring the two men safely to shore.
