Rescue, (name withheld). Go ahead. I've got a couple of more responders. I have somebody to be a scribe. What would you like? We're currently looking at about seven resources up here, which, based on the fact that the helicopter's inbound should be plenty at this time, so you can go ahead and stand by where you are. Is Shlu-Ewan seen? He's at the trailhead. Are you guys at the eaglesmear trails head or have you gone up to lower cataract lake? We're at the eaglesmear trailhead. Okay, so you don't want anybody. Do you still want the star link? That would be nice. I am departing Denver Union Station on time. Copy. You got you on time. Thank you. Be safe out there. 7.50 at the base. LZ up at Eaglesmere Lake. We... are going to leave that to the pilot. We don't have anybody on scene with the patient. So there's either an LZ at the Eagles Mirror Trailhead where we are, or the pilot can find one at the lakes and land direct. All right. I took an aerial photograph look at where the SOS plotted. It's right between the two lakes. And if you look, there's a pretty good size beach area. on one of the lakes which I measured it's at least 100 feet by 100 feet so hopefully you can put down right next to the lake
