{"product_id":"search-and-rescue-rocky-mountains-9781493037278","title":"Search and Rescue Rocky Mountains","description":"The Rocky Mountains have inspired travelers for centuries. The vast majority of those who visit this vast area might write to their friends, \"Having a great time! Wish you were here!\" Meanwhile, a few every year invariably find themselves shouting, \"Help! I'm in trouble!\" And trouble never comes at a convenient time. Search and Rescue: Rocky Mountains gathers the most heart-racing accounts from 1847 to the age of modern rescue technology showcasing the heroism of park rangers, first responders, pilots, and others (some canine) who go out of their way to save people from falling rocks, lightning, boiling hot springs, frigid water, slick ice, wildlife, sudden storms, falls from precipices, or just getting lost. Included in this compilation are the accounts of: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSixteen Grand Teton climbers extracted from a sudden, deadly lightning storm. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrain surgery performed at night during a blizzard. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA woman who was rescued three times in four years in Wyoming's Bighorn Mountains.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA record 1800-foot sheer descent to rescue a climber with a leg smashed by a rock falling from the Grand Teton.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kent Dannen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyons Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781493037278\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKent Dannen is the author of The American Wilderness in the Words of John Muir, Colorado, Rocky Mountain Country, and Listen to the Sparrow's Song.
