Thanks. I suspected that was the incident but never saw them lift anyone out. That's back in Carloyn Cooke's subdivision- wonder what happened?

Hey Boots! A rescue helicopter was dispatched for an unconscious person east of Erwin Lake yesterday around 1pm. The incident is on the list from yesterday but you would never know it was a helicopter rescue. I saw it on the chatter between Big Bear Fire and Air Rescue 08.

Yesterday morning there was a helicopter circling out over the dry lake in Erwin and surrounding the hills for a long time. Nothing is in incidents. Anyone know what was going on?
