PROVO — Newly-released footage from a Utah Department of Public Safety Aero Bureau helicopter crew captured the recent hoist rescues of two firefighters from a wildland fire in the Manti-La Sal National Forest.
The video from the helicopter and also from a crew member on the ground shows one firefighter being airlifted out on a stretcher while the other was lifted out by the crew member on the hoist. Nielsen said the conditions can quickly take a toll, especially when firefighters are carrying up to 60 pounds of gear.
"By September, October, you're typically worn down, especially if it's been busy fire season," he said.–Garrett Nielsen, Utah County fire warden
