Rescue 310 IC on Bravo 2.
03:27
Go rescue 310s.
03:32
So they're in such steep country,
03:36
unless we can convince him to walk.
03:39
I don't see any vehicles getting anywhere near them.
03:42
And it's too steep to carry them on a stretcher.
03:45
Do you still have that stretcher with a wheel on it?
03:53
Yes,
03:55
we do, but if it's too steep to carry it might be pretty sketchy, bringing them down that in the rain.
04:01
We meet a lot of people.
04:04
Yeah,
04:06
this might be, if you can't walk, this might be a 310 rope operation with rescue 86 as well.
04:15
I'm still trying to figure out if we can't walk.
04:18
I'm planning.
04:24
I copy, we'll start heading your way.
04:25
You made a left and then a less on that trail?
04:30
That correct.
04:31

Captain 307 IC on Bravo 2.
04:54
How's it looking? What do you think we got for our game plan here?
05:06
Sounds like he's ambulatory, we're talking paid meds right now,
05:10
and we can probably assist him down.
05:12
Give me one second.
05:14
No,
05:15
right on. I like that plan a lot.
05:18
The alternatives are not good.
05:20
Without a helicopter, it's really tough if we can't walk.
