Four riders in a group of 18 snowmobilers went over the edge of a snow crater near Hawke's Bay, on Newfoundland's Northern Peninsula, and crashed down about 20 or 30 feet (6 to 9 metres) on Wednesday. Three of the four people needed to be airlifted to hospital to check for injuries, says Edmund Gould, who went to the scene to help. The remaining 14 snowmobilers, and the other rider who went over the edge, were led out on their machines. The snow pit has been marked with ribbon and sticks, to ensure no other snowmobilers go over the edge. The hole is now marked off with sticks and ribbon, Gould said, to make sure other snowmobilers can spot it.
