| Topic | I nearly died at the Grand Canyon this week. |
| Forceful_Dragon 07/25/20 5:59:17 PM #13: | Oh and I forgot there was a rattlesnake I had to chuck rocks at until it ran away at one point because it was blocking the trail. This was shortly before our water section. Emeraldegg posted... So wait, why exactly were you vomiting in the first place? Just overexertion? Would that alone really cause someone to be unable to keep stuff down, rather than just a one-time vomiting? I couldn't tell you. I thought I was doing everything right, but then I simply hit a wall. Emeraldegg posted... Also that sounds pretty stupid the bit about the helicopter being booked. What, that's the ONLY helicopter within flying radius? They can't phone another district for help or something? i dont know. I was trying to be really insistent that I didn't think I could make it out under my own strength, but it was dismissed as not possible. I think the pump station employees are the only ones who get dropped off and picked up from there and only by the single grand canyon helicopter. And that the medical helicopter COULD use the helipad, but was too busy that day because...reasons? And that tourist helicopters were not allowed to go that low into the canyon or use that particular helipad so I couldn't have even placed an order for one of those. Oh and it goes without saying that we had no cell service the entire time or we'd have called 911 before night fall the day before. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
