Element Rescue

As promised - a quick shout out and huge thank you to for the insanely generous donation to the cause! The 2-day assault pack is getting loaded out in extremely diverse ways by all of us- here’s just a few - but many more to follow. The All In Deployment bag can literally fit small homes within it, but has proved indispensable for the varied kit loaded into trucks and side by sides…vertical load-outs, halligans, axes, recip saws, grinders…everything! Also threw in a pic of .william.morton who we are assisting in developing his potential male modeling career if the arborist deal doesn’t pan out…but the foliage definitely makes his “ginger” -ness pop. One again, thanks and especially Tristen Mortenson for the constant updates and assistance- we are still at it. #’sright

Want to try and catch up on a few posts… this one starts with Dave Spence who I’ve been fortunate to work with on many occasions on many projects for the past…a lot of years. After FaceTiming him early on our arrival and initial work in the Green Mountain region of Western North Carolina, he made some calls for us on his own…one being to Scott with The Wing Group- who then contacted and who generously sent us some much needed gear / kit - which we can’t thank you enough. This post will focus on and our next will focus on . With the waters cooling down significantly and the varied contaminants present, getting out and clearing areas from boat and also accessing debris piles which formed concrete / soot islands for everything from car parts, refrigerators and large chunks of houses to get stuck onto, put us in desperate need of some dry suites. Within a couple of days we had a delivery of insanely high quality dry suites in all sizes , repair and PM Accessories- if needed and a great personal note from Brian. I can’t thank you guys enough, this work will continue for a bit - and we will continually be in debt to your organization as we continue to utilize these during prolonged recovery operations trying to help provide closure for members of these communities. The first night out with them was spent at a debris / concrete island pile until around 3 am after and .charly23 had an emotionally charged story relayed to them that day from a sister about her missing brother.

Day 3- been a bit busy to post but back in Utah with some gangsters- skinny slots with some big drops. Lots of anchors ghosted - tomorrow, we may bust out the sand trap. Oh…after a bit of a hiatus- we’re back on social media. More to follow… next post will be a quick update, some delayed “thanks”, and a few items of great importance.
