Tow operators were in clean-up mode on Wednesday, after a night of desperation on the Malahat highway prompted people to abandon their vehicles Tuesday.

Plows needed the work to happen as well so they could clear what was left of a messy dump of snow.

"It was taking people three hours from Langford to here," said Lori Strandlund, owner of the Malahat Chalet and the Moon Water Lodge."Anytime that we have an emergency on the Malahat, we do our best to stay open," said Strandlund.The business became a lifeline for those unable to make their way over the Malahat, even though the power had gone out at the business around 6 p.m. Tuesday night.

The owners of the chalet and lodge also lowered the cost of a hotel stay for those who were out of options.
