SAR Staff, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the area of David Creek Park on the report of a plane crash that sparked a fire. Teams were pre-staged at various locations to alert hikers of the fire, as well as to perform evacuation notices for residences in the Bowers Mansion/Franktown Rd. area if needed. The fire was kept in check by a heavy air attack assault, and fire evacuation notices were not needed. As far as the plane crash, witnesses reported it to be a powered glider. Fire personnel that reached the area on foot did not find any survivors.

The SVU continued to perform marine safety patrols at Pyramid Lake for the Labor Day holiday.

SAR Staff, Hasty Team, SVU, and WCSAR responded to the Garson Road entrance to Hunter Lake on the report of a subject experiencing a medical episode approximately four miles from the staging area.

The SVU performed safety patrols at Pyramid Lake for the Labor Day weekend. PFD reminders for paddle-boarders and safety flag reminders for swimmers in the water near a boat were the main subjects of the day.

SAR Staff, Air Squadron, Hasty Team, RAVEN, SVU, and WCSAR responded to an area south of Vya/east of Eagleville, CA to search for two overdue campers. The reporting party, stated that they were supposed to be home on Monday, but waited until Wednesday to report them overdue. RAVEN attempted to fly into the area, but were turned back by winds. The Air Squadron flew the area, but did not spot the subjects. Ground teams were deployed from Gerlach to possible areas by either SR34 or SR447. Two ground teams that had staged east of Eagleville located the subjects at a campsite known as “Home Camp”. They were fine and were surprised anyone was looking for them. There had evidently been some miscommunication as to when they were supposed to be home.
