SAR Staff and SVU responded to the Jumbo Grade area to locate and rescue a stranded motorist. The subject was following his GPS, heading to Jumbo Falls to see the scenery in his rental Hyundai Sonata, when the road became impassable and his car became hopelessly stuck.

Due to roads being washed out in the area, it took a bit of work, but a search team was able to locate the subject and transport him back to staging. He declined any medical assistance and was given a ride to the hotel he was staying at while in Reno.
