Awesome response from all involved. From the vantage point of The Phoenix, we were able to watch the entirety of the events unfold. Makes me appreciate the fragility of the environment we all live in and the men and women tasked as its stewards. A big thanks to all involved.
So glad to read the brevity of this, heart-stopping photo. Hoorah the wild wood dwellers.
