G-spotter Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Does warm Code Red go well with a lunch of BBQ snaffle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra_Commander Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I've found code red doesn't go well with air and water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billcoe Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Lunch within the perimeter! Code Red! Code Red! Violation in progess! ________________________________________________ Â I wasn't there. I don't know about it specifically. But if a litter were to scrape a loose boulder or rock off which then bounces over and coldcocks some poor bastard just peacefully munching a sandwich down below.......well, one could see that the line of ambulance chasers would far exceed the number of climbers within 20 nanaseconds, thus swamping the park and resources of the authorities to handle them all. __________________________________________________ Â Fishsticks says: The accident mentioned above was on memorial crack. From what I gather one party was asked to move because they were having lunch within the perimeter where the team was working to lower and then transport the victim. Â So this may have more to the eye than first blush and explains why the first post was deleted perhaps: sounds like SAR was in the process of an actual rescue and was helping some unfortunate off..... Â Maybe the victim of the Apron accident was not bothered by the closure, and maybe the SAR could have let the first complaintant and his buddy climb through while they let the poor bastard lie there in a pool of blood waiting for them to finish the route......I suppose the victim wouldn't have minded if he was unconcious.....

kix Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I curious what the lunch fare was. if I was the one being rescued from an epic, I might like to be offered a sammich on the way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billcoe Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Not me, I'd want them to clear my airway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I wonder if SAR carries chicken wings? If not, they should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra_Commander Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I don't think you could expect this from the EMT-B's, but if a unit has ALS capability they might be able to hook you up with some injectable poultry. Buffalo wings are a bitch when c-spined though! Make sure they don't speed strap your arms to the litter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I'm just saying that chasing away the guy with lunch at the ready seemed a bit hasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyHarry Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 No shit. What if he tried to wolf down his sammich to get out of the way quick and choked on it. Not very safe practice by the SAR dudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobo Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The local Yakima SAR was at Tieton a couple weeks ago. Gaitors, beer bellies, loops of webbing everywhere, falling down trying to walk down the trail. Sketchy. I don't recomend ever needing a rescue in that area. Â We'll be sure to check your name off our list. FWIW, that was not CWMR, but a class from the local community college. Have a nice day.
