Six days of blizzards maroon huge areas of the Southwest. Six deaths are reported and many Indian reservations are isolated. Air Force helicopters air-drop food, medicine, and feed the livestock and wild game. Snow covered trees and hills. A plow clears the roads and deer run across the road. A black screen reads, "Snowstorm - Hundreds Trapped In Southwest." Several beautiful shots of trees and plants covered in heavy snow. Limbs sag under the weight - icicles. A massive snowplow pushes feet of snow from a mountain road. A deer attempts to jump over a snow bank. Additional footage shows the deer running down the middle of the road.
