For some reason, despite a day of sunshine and temps in the mid-60`s, he and a companion returned to the site at 1 AM the following night.
The all terrain vechile that they were aboard also plunged thru the ice. The companion escaped, but Mr. Manley`s body was recovered by the Coast Guard at 3:10 AM Southwest of the Channel Islands on Saginaw Bay.
