I just got hooked up to our patrol boat down at our office.
02:23
It's about a five-minute drive up the hill.
02:25
Do you want me to go ahead and launch from the North End or wait?
02:31
Why don't we go ahead and stand by for just a minute until we figure out exactly what we're going to do and get a solid plan?
02:42

There's a tree down, blocking the entire improved trail.
03:21
If we wheel them out,
03:23
it probably will work well to get some solid lip and cut that other way.
03:30
It's only eight out of tenures over my end on that bed.
03:38
Tebred 83 from command.
03:40
All I was able to copy is there is a tree down.
03:43
I didn't get any of your, the rest of your transmission.
03:47
The tree is blocking the approach to trigger.
03:51
If we do wheel them out, it'll be worthwhile.
03:54
It's in some soft problems you can cut up.
03:57
It's a down principal aisle.
04:01
Parts 15 and mutually won't we abide.
04:10
We're having a patient.
04:16
And engine 62.
04:20
Go ahead, engine 62.
04:24
We've made contact with patients.
04:26
Parks is unseen.
04:28
We're probably just over a mile in on the trail.
04:33
Plan copies.
04:35
Engine 62, can you evaluate the best course of action for an extrication?
04:41
We've got a boat available if it's closer to get into the waterline and extract them by boat.
04:46
We can get that going.
04:52
Yeah, we're assessing the patient.
04:53
I'll see if it's going to be a carryout, I think the boat's going to be the best idea.
05:02
Let me have a 1041.
05:06
Go ahead.
05:08
Based on the visual from the drone,
05:11
I would say that extrication with the boat would be very possible unless water conditions are not able for the boat.
05:26
Copy.
05:27
Break.
05:28
Parks unit with the boat.
05:32

05:38
Park 7.
05:40
Copy, Park 7.
05:41
It looks like we're going to go ahead and see if we can get an extrication by boat, so if you want to go ahead and launch.
05:50
Hi, copy, I'll be launching from the north end and no concerns with the weather for this boat.
05:57
Copy, thanks.
06:00

06:14

06:22
