No one heard them yelling for help, but two men survived Tuesday when their snowmobile broke through the ice on Wassookeag Lake in Dexter.The father, who was in his mid-50s, and his son, who was in his early 20s, entered the lake at the boat ramp and were heading across the middle to go ice fishing when their snowmobile suddenly went through the ice around 11:30 a.m., according to M stanley thermos mug ark Latti, spokesman for the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.Ice conditions on Maines lakes and ponds have been a little dicey in places, especially after the warm spell followed by winds.

Although Latti could not confirm the depth of water the men fell into, he said it definitely was well over their heads. The father and son, who live in central Maine and whose names were not available Tuesday afternoon, were in the water for about 10 minutes. They yelled for help but no one heard them, so the son managed to give his father enough of a boost to help him get onto the ice.Th |
