Another successful mission.

A distressed hiker was hot, out of water, and had a phone that was almost dead. Fortunately, they had the good sense to call for help and send us their coordinates before their cell phone died.

The location was on the trail leading toward the Narrows. Our drone team was able to confirm the hiker’s location. Working together with OMTRS and MVSAR, members of our team reached the subject, provided water, and helped them safely off the mountain.

Great teamwork and a good outcome.

The drone is truly coming into it own. Training with Ernesto and Josh on different techniques and patterns has added so much. Last few missions has included working also with Mesilla Valley's drone team. This has shown how much we still need to learn!!
