Two men were hypothermic when they were rescued Sunday morning after the utility terrain vehicle they were riding in broke through ice on Bartlett Stream in Searsmont. The men told rescue workers they had snowmobiled in that area of the frozen stream just a few days before. “Ice conditions can change quickly, particularly on waters where there is any type of current,” said Game Warden Chris Dyer.
