Kris says my blog is boring so here's my latest post. This is our yearly shorthaul training with the Grand canyon Rangers and the helicopter crew. Shorthaul is used when a rescue attempt cannot be made by landing the helicopter or a technical rope rescue or litter carry is out of the question. Basically these brave souls are willing to hang on the end of a 100 to 150 foot line hanging on the helicopter and be flown into the person in need of help. Once they're on scene, the put the person in a harness and we fly them both out. Sorry about all the helicopter pictures but my job is awesome.
