Listen to the interview:

Gilbert: “He [Dickey] had two daughters … One day, they're skiing and he is observing the situation … For some reason or other, something went wrong [with the rope tow] … could have been the battery.… John came to the rescue and said, 'Well, you've got a toboggan here. You take the battery out and we'll go down to my car and I'll take the battery out of my car and we'll get the ski-tow running again.' Which is what we did."
