3/20/2018 – Lost Snowshoers

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to an initial staging location at the NDF station on the Mt. Rose Highway to search for two lost snowshoers in the Chickadee Ridge area of the Tahoe Meadows. Teams were sent up to a secondary staging location at the south end of the Tahoe Meadows, and using a cell phone ping, were able to locate the subjects and guide them to the highway where they were checked by NLTFPD medics. The weather was initially very foggy, then turned into a light snow.
