Several parties stranded by snow
We received a
call from the China Lake Search and Rescue Team
to assist the in rescue operations from the first
major storm of the season to hit the high Sierra.
Several hiking parties were stranded on Mt.
Whitney. The China Lake team had been out working
in the extreme weather for some time. As a
manpower report was being gathered on our part,
weather cleared enough for China Lake to get air
support from the Navel Base, and our assistance
was no longer needed.
