Arizona's hot weather has come down a bit, but hikers being overcome by the heat is still a big issue and it's important to remember just what the heat can do to you.
Three times on Sept. 17 in Scottsdale hikers needed the help of first responders, even getting some assistance from above.The first rescue was on the Ringtail trailhead off 128th street. That call was from a 60-year-old woman around 9:25 a.m. who reported feeling nauseous on the trail.
The drones are especially helpful during these types of calls, he says. They can be used not only to survey the area but also to bring water and talk to the patient. "He was actually vomiting, losing consciousness in and out, so doing that operation allows us to put a medic in there with advanced life support them, start treating then fly him from the helicopter where he is transported," he said.
