## Narrative

The mine lost power due to an ice storm. While evacuating the mine 4 persons attempted to come to the surface using the escape hoist which was operating on generator power. The hoist stopped short about 20' from the surface. The low speed clutch had failed to engage. The hoist was turned manually to bring the 4 persons the rest of the way out. They got out at 11:26 PM.
