DANGEROUS HEAT CONTINUES! 🚁 Busy Sunday for AIR1 and our @LVMPDSAR Search and Rescue (SAR) team. On Sunday, July 26, AIR1 crews responded to two separate rescue missions involving hikers in Southern Nevada. 📍Event #260700103668# | Frenchman Mountain Just after 12 p.m., AIR1 responded to Frenchman Mountain, where two hikers were suffering from heat exhaustion. Crews from @ClarkCountyFD Station 20 reached the hikers on foot before both were safely hoisted by AIR1, flown to a nearby landing zone, and transferred to waiting ground personnel. 📍Event #260700104455# | Black Mountain Around 5 p.m., AIR1 responded near Black Mountain after a hiker became lost. Personnel from the @HendFireDept responded by ground using a UTV, while Mercy Air also assisted. A Search and Rescue officer was hoisted into the area to assess the hiker before both were safely extracted by AIR1, flown to a nearby landing zone, and transferred to ground personnel. These rescues are another reminder that Southern Nevada's summer heat can quickly become dangerous. Temps between 110 and 120 degrees are in the forecast all week. ☀️ Start your hike early and avoid the hottest part of the day. 💧 Bring more water than you think you'll need. 📱 Tell someone where you're going and when you expect to return. 🥾 Know your limits and turn around before conditions become unsafe. ⚠️ Reconsider hiking outdoors in extreme heat (especially during heat advisories and extreme heat warnings!) Thank you to our partners at Clark County Fire Department, Henderson Fire Department, and Mercy Air for the outstanding teamwork that helped bring everyone home safely.
