1/10/2017 – Stranded Motorists

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR once again responded to the Henness Pass area to search for stranded motorists. Interstate 80 had been closed due to snow, so motorists were using map apps that took them on this route. The initial call was for three adults and four children, but they self extracted before SAR assets arrived. However, while teams were checking the road, another vehicle was located with three subjects. They were transported to staging, where SAR staff delivered them to Gold Ranch.
