SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Sheeps Flat area of the Mt. Rose Highway to rescue an injured back-country snowboarder. Due to the location of the subject, it was decided that a helicopter hoist operation would be the best way for extraction. Once the subject was packaged and hoisted, RAVEN made the transport to a waiting ambulance at the Mt. Rose Highway.
