Narrative

While patrolling the south fence the security guard was making a loop to turn back onto the trail. There is a slight lip where the trail is lower than the snow the guard came off. The snowmobile was going very slow at the time. IT tipped on its left side and the guard rolled off as it tipped over on its side. No damage to trail/snowmobile. Guard reminded to use extra caution.
