“The area where she was located had been searched numerous times by rescue crews. However, due to the fact that Tatum was mostly buried under rocks, she was extremely difficult to find.”
“After almost two months of extensive search efforts, we are relieved that she is able to be returned to her family,” Assistant Chief Jon Trapp from Red Lodge Fire Rescue said.
“The effort volunteers put into finding Tatum surpassed anything I’ve seen in my 17 years with Search and Rescue operations; it was absolutely incredible.”
A rescue team recovered Tatum from the difficult area where she was found and they had her flown to the Red Lodge Airport, where Tatum’s family was waiting.
