Inexperienced Climbers Put Rescue Teams in Danger

Summer climbing season has just begun, the rescue team in the Pacific coast Northwest has already received a call for 911 avalanche.

Air Force reserve Pave Hawk helicopter crashed Thursday and there were at least four dangerous rescue activities last week that try to rescue a group of 30 ft cracked in Mount Hood, Oregon. Three climbers died, the other six were injured, and the rescuers who were involved in six helicopter accidents were also injured.

"We heard a strange thing," rescued agent Dave Ewen said. "Looking up, the helicopter hurried toward the canyon"

This accident occurred one day after the rescuer recovered three experienced climbers who died in Mount Rainier, Washington. In addition, a few days ago, Hu Deshan 's rescuer recovered the body of the dead in an attempt to ski at 11,000 feet.

Older helicopter pilots such as Mike Cataldo say that all advanced rescue is difficult. "You put it in your head," he said. "I know that we have risks and we always have the opportunity, so I think you have to do this."

Steve Rawlings, a mountain rescuer in Portland, Russia, says:

Legislators nationwide are asking if climbers should pay for their rescue activities. However, only Oregon state is actually fined on a case by case basis.

Rawlins said: "If one claims you for relief, they said that they may delay seeking help." They exacerbate the condition and the danger and danger of rescue workers You may increase it. "

Lloyd Arthur, Deputy Director of the American Alps Club, says:

In spite of danger and controversy, mountaineers are expected to establish the new record keeping flooding the highest peak in the US. Rescuers will keep putting their lives at risk to defend them

Bill O'Reilly stated that all the climbers are enthusiastic, endanger the rescuer, and taxpayers need to pay for rescue activities. Climbers are not seeking the joy of adventurers, but those who prefer to travel in nature, they return to their homes with new peace and vitality. If climbers, hikers, or people engaged in outdoor sports are in trouble, the search and rescue team will help them when they are in trouble. Most people believe that the entire search and rescue expenses will be paid by taxpayers, but search and rescue activities are largely funded by volunteers, fundraising activities, individual donations. The only expense for taxpayers is the local government organization such as the local police chief's office room to oversee rescue. Compared to all other outdoor activities, the cost of the rescue climber is only a fraction of the total rescue cost. People like Bill O'Reilly are not looking at the whole picture. Everest said,

The mountain search and rescue team mainly consists of volunteers who rescue time and money. Climbing is dangerous, but the threat to rescuers is very low. Bill O'Reilly claims that rescuers are in danger in mountain rescue activities on the mountain. Food Not so. According to the American Alpine Club, the main authority of climbing and climbing, rescue workers are largely involved in climbing and rescue rock climbing. In searching and / or rescuing missing or injured hikers, skiers, and down planes, the most dangerous situations leading to the maximum number of search and rescue and death occurred 5. But they are strictly trained, so rescuers can keep their work as safe as possible.
