There was helicopter on spyrock on July 8 and July 9
Palo Verde as well.
Sounds horrible. Best of luck and care to the injured.
Sounds like a real nasty crash. I sure hope he will be fine. Thank you Petrolia Fire and Southern Trinity Area Rescue for your help.
The picture is an old “stock ” picture of REACH copter that was taken by STAR. It’s used in a lot of articles that reference a medical helicopter. STAR and Petrolia Fire (the agency responding to this particular crash) are nowhere close to each other and STAR didn’t respond to this incident.
ATVs are scary things. They can crunch bones in a heartbeat.
