I'f F- Dr. Lovelace and his wife, Mary, 53, apparently died in the crash, but the pilot, Milton Brown, 27, lived for a time and nut their bodies together and covered them up, a member of the recovery team reported. The plane had left Aspen Sunday afternoon on a flight to Albuquerque, but it got only about 20 miles before crashing in Grizzly Gulf at an elevation of about feet and about 1500 feet below the top of Grizzly Peak near Independence Pass. Appeared Too Low "It appeared the plane got too low in the canyon, tried to make a quick turn to get out and lost altitude," said Mike Penfold of Aspen, a U.S. Forest Ranger, one of four men who reached the crash scene Wednesday afternoon.

It took four hours to reach the wreckage which was spotted earlier' by a helicopter pi lot. "It looks like he caught one wing in the snow and plane probably cartwheeled," said Penfold. "The plane broke in half. The passenger compartment broke open and apparently all the people were thrown out, in their seats." Penfold said it appeared that Lovelace and his wife died, but Brown survived for a time. Tracks in Snow "There were tracks in the snow all about," Penfold said.

"He put the bodies of man and wife together and covered them up. "Apparently he started to walk out, walked a few feet 'and then came back. He dug some clothing out of one of the suitcases and covered jliimself up, next to the fuselage." Penfold said the fuselage had burned and Brown was apparently trying to get close to it for warmth.
