Where do you want us to each go? You’ve got a better idea what's going on.
00:23
I believe Command 1 is out with my sister.
00:26
I'm not sure where they’re at, but I'm up 340.
00:30
We don't have anybody on duty out here, so if one of you guys can come up here.

01:01
Stuck in the trees.
01:02
I've got the three parties with me in the truck.
01:06

01:08
I don't know if you want us to start heading down or stay here with the vehicle.
01:14
South Fork.
01:17
RG9. Go ahead.
01:19
If there's no damage or anything like that, I would just go ahead and start heading down.
01:26
I was told there’s a small child involved,
01:29
so just get them down out of the mountain.
01:31
Yeah, I've got all three parties with me.
01:33
We're going to grab a few things out of the car, and then we'll just start making our way down.

02:02
RG7, RG9 Good How far up do I go before I find the term for 340?
02:11
So you're just going to keep going straight up, then it'll make a Y, you'll take a left, I believe that one is unmarked.
02:19
Take that, keep going up away, then you'll take another veer left, and that'll say 340.
02:27
And we're 11 copies.
02:30
Five, I'm going to go ahead and head up to seven location with nine.
02:37
Okay, I copy.
02:39
It sounds like these are two separate.
02:42
They're not crashes.
02:43
They're more a slide-off.
02:45
It's what it sounds like.
02:47
But the one that RG7 is out with is possibly,
02:51
they're all 5-5.
02:53

03:57
It's really slick, really slippery.

04:06
There's really not much room to pass.
