SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Tahoe Meadows to assist in searching for a mountain biker who requested help through 911. His riding partner stated that they had just turned on the Tyrolean Turnoff, which was a bit vague. Dispatch was unable to get a successful cell phone ping. NLTFPD personnel were first on scene and sent their UTV into the area. As SAR teams arrived at staging, and were about to deploy, the subject was located by fire personnel. He was scraped up from the fall and was transported back to staging to be checked out by medical personnel.
