I do agree that the fire and police departments did an amazing job saving them but it was also due to the quick thinking of both boys that kept them both alive.
To be fair, the Union Leader reported they were skimming. It also mentioned only one sled, but to me that made no sense. The Citizen article made much more sense saying nothing about skimming and that there were two sleds.

I was not there, but I think the Citizen had it right and that the Union Leader did a horrible job of reporting what actually happened. Happy all are well and happy they were not skimming.
