At approximately 1350 hours the Team was called to assist with a reported snomobile-tree collision on the A Trail 1/4 mile from where the A Trail crosses Owens River Road. The lone male subject was reported to have serious life-threatening injuries, and a Mono County Medic Unit was summoned and arrived prior to MOSAR.

Other riders in the area were able to transport the medics to the subject. The Team arrived shortly thereafter and a field team of 2 immediately departed on a snomo towing the Rescueboggan over-snow litter. A second field team of 2 snomos went out to transport other first responders back to rescue base.

The subject was quickly packaged and placed in the Rescueboggan along with an attending medic. The subject was transported to the medic unit, and then transported by the medic unit to a Care Flight fixed-wing aircraft at Mammoth-Yosemite Airport for a flight to Renown medical facility in Reno, NV.
