Want to go, 11 Rich.
00:01
I got a hold of her and she said she won't be able to get her speeding on without a light, so it wouldn't help.
00:08
Happy thanks.
00:14
Want to go, Levin, Rich.
00:17
Go ahead.
00:19
DPS said it's going to be 45 minutes before they could even take off and then they would give us an ETA after that.
00:30
Copy.
00:36
Command, when I go in.
00:40
Go ahead.
00:44
Just wondering if looking at the maps,
00:48
you guys have found any other great ideas on how we could get to her?
00:56
Negative, I'm still looking but I haven't found any other way in.
01:04
I'm gonna go on, 1-1-11.
01:07
As of right now, we are on a trail.
01:10
If you look at the maps,
01:12
there's a trail that heads up to the peak.
01:15
Unfortunately,
01:16
I think snowshoes is the only way we're gonna reach for.
01:23
I don't think that's work.
01:30
7 echo 1, 1 echo 11.
01:34
Go ahead.
01:37
We probably should put together a team of people to go in on snowshoes, you think,
01:44
and then get her some snowshoes and help her snowshoe out, at least until we hear back from DPS.
01:51
Yeah, I agree, that's what I was thinking, that we probably ought to bring in another team with that.
01:56
I'll start working on that.
02:02
Rich, have an echo one.
02:04
Go ahead.
02:08
So, yeah, we're going to need a second team.
02:10
They're going to need to stop at the Garden City Fire Station and pick up,
02:16
I don't even know which trailer.
02:17
We're going to have to look through one of the two winter trailers and find the snowshoes and bring them up.
02:25
10.4. L p.m.
02:26
now.
02:37
I need an additional search and rescue crew to report to the Garden City Fire Station and look through the winter trailers to bring snowshoes up to the UDOT Sheds.
02:49
We need a hiking crew to go down and help get her out.
02:56
Rich, 7 echo 1.
02:57
I can't see I am responding from here.
02:59
Will you let me know if anybody is responded to that second call?
03:06
104LGP data.
03:11
Alpha 11, Rich.
03:17
Go ahead.
03:22
The caller, she's not able to see you, but she did just text to come down the west side that you have to come from the north.
03:31
Yeah, so,
03:33
unfortunately,
03:34
we are on the other side of the hill.
03:38
If she can go north in the drainage at all,
03:41
that would be incredible helpful.
03:44
And I'm going to light a flare and ask her if she sees a red light up on the hill.
03:52
Copy Elich.
