Officials have decided it’s too dangerous to dig through the caved in roof of the Lucky Friday mine, near Mullan, Idaho.

They will now try digging two new shafts to get to Larry Marek.  He and his brother were working in the mine on Friday, when the roof caved in.

Digging the new shafts could take seven days.  Temperatures inside the mine, at the depth Marek was working, can hit 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37 Celsius).
