The setting is Piestewa Peak, a peak in the Phoenix Mountains, in, well, Phoenix.
Firefighters were called to help a 74-year-old hiker who’d suffered an injury on the mountain Tuesday morning.
According to a FOX 10 Phoenix report, firefighters determined that “the best course of action” would be to airlift the woman to an area trauma center, which in this case apparently required strapping her to a gurney dangling from the bottom of a helicopter and towing her out of there. This either did not go as planned.
