    The use of helicopters in Search and REscue is dangerous, and Colorado's high elevations and warm summertime temperatures only compounds the dangers for the aviators and rescue crews. The use of a helicopter is limited to rescue those whose injuries that are life-, limb-, or eyesight-threatening, or when conditions put ground rescuers at significant peril.
    The arrival of a helicopter in a search and rescue setting should never be considered an expectation.
    It is an exception.

      I'm hijacking this comment since it's got the highest number of likes. I'm the Colorado Army National Guard PAO and I actually made a 30-minute documentary on this rescue for anyone that is interested. It includes the GoPro footage seen here, but also includes a lot more footage from the surrounding mountain/ build up to the rescue. I also have interviews from the two climbers that were rescued, as well as the crew that conducted the rescue.

    What was wrong with this guy? He didn't seem to have any obvious medical issues, broken bones, etc. He was obviously alone. Was he soloing a technical route and got in over his head? He also didn't seem to have any technical gear, unless it was in his pack. He didn't seem to be in any distress. Impressive rescue, less than impressive responsibility by the climber, or was he just a hiker, though the terrain is clearly not hiking terrain.

      It's not directly obvious, that this was the injured climber's partner. The injured individual had been evacuated prior to this footage. The partner was not injured, but was in a precarious spot and was lifted out after his partner.

      No, Nick, this was an actual rescue. The video starts during the evacuation of the second individual; the one hoisted prior to video rolling was injured and already in the helicopter. This was the companion (hence, so easily talking and moving around).

      @pierreolsson588 10 месяцев назад

      Yup, kind of weird! It is the job of the hoist operator to just lower the person, he is on radio with the pilot telling him where the person is compared to the ground, typically you say ”half way”, then ”30 feet” ”20 feet” and so on. The Guy dangling only need to start signaling when he is close to the ground. No need to start waving your arms around right out the door…
