4 KILLED IN HELICOPTER CRASH.

Wolf Creek, Utah -- (AP) -- A private helicopter filming a ski movie crashed into a remote northern Utah mountain, killing all four men aboard.
Weber County Sheriff Craig Dearden reported that a three-member rescue team skied into the crash site about 2 a.m. CST today and confirmed that all aboard the aircraft had died in the Sunday afternoon crash.
Ground crews were to leave at dawn to recover the remains, which were found in the wreckage of the helicopter in the Wolf Creek area near Powder Mountain.
Killed in the accident were:
RICHARD MICKELSON, of Utah.
DAVID WRIGHT, of Utah.
BRENT PATTERSON, of Utah.
