Rescue of injured hiker on Mt. Sanitas

Kayleen Glaser

2015 #166, Evacuation of an injured hiker from the upper section of the Mt. Sanitas S. Ridge Trail. Litter lowering brake station just above the trail. At this point, the evacuation left the South Ridge to descend directly down the east side of Mount Sanitas. The seated rescuer right controls the lowering speed of the evacuation by adjusting friction on the brake plate, the bronze colored metal device the green rope wraps around.
