    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Photograph of two individuals in snow suits operating a large tread-wheel snowplow. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured  from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations &quot;Operation Hay-lift&quot; and &quot;Pitchfork&quot; in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. <br />
