Michaels was with his daughter Tonie, 18, planning to fly to Aspen and Telluride before returning home. Both only suffered minor injuries. According to reports they used trees and debris from the plane to build a shelter while waiting to be rescued. Park rangers reached them Friday morning. They were brought down from the wreckage in a helicopter.
