Late afternoon yesterday, Summit Fire, Coconino County Sheriff’s Deputies, Search and Rescue, DPS and Guardian Medical worked together to rescue into a hiker who had fallen and broken her leg on Mount Elden. The injured female was located a ½ mile from the top on Fat Man’s Loop trail. A wheeled stokes basket was used to carry her up to the top to the waiting DPS Ranger helicopter. The injured woman was then flown to FMC for treatment.
