Just recently, officers in the California Highway Patrol helicopter and a Fresno County Sheriff’s deputy rescued a hiker who suffered a mild stroke Sunday evening along the Pacific Crest Trail.
Tara Steele, 66, from Santa Rosa was hiking the Pacific Crest Trail when she suffered an apparent stroke and was able to activate SOS on her inReach SE and request a medical evacuation.
“Because she had this device, we knew exactly where she was at,” CHP Ofc. Rusty Hotchkiss said.
“My daughter required that I had some way of communicating with her. How amazing it is that technology and people can make this happen,” Steele said to reporters.
