ASPEN, Colo. (AP) - The U.S. Forest Service is considering explosives to move a bunch of frozen cows stuck inside a cabin at 11,000 feet.

According to the Aspen Daily News, the Forest Service is worried about the high fire danger and they're looking at other solutions when they meet on Tuesday. Other options include using helicopters or trucks.

The cows were discovered by two Air Force Academy cadets when they snowshoed up to the cabin in late March. Officials believe the animals sought shelter during a snowstorm and got stuck.
