Not wearing a helmet may be a factor in a fatal northern Saskatchewan snowmobile crash. It happened early Sunday morning in Stanley Mission.
Mounties say the crash happened around 4 a.m. CT when the snowmobile driven by a 25-year-old woman collided with a rock along the shoreline of a bay.
The driver died as a result of her injuries. Her name has not been released.
