Emergency vehicles~Sunday Stills Challenge~051513

I didn't get any photos of the three fire trucks that went to assist in the rescue of a hiker who fell 20-30 feet while climbing Tahquitz Peak, but I did get several photos of the helicopters which also went to assist him.  This was a nearly 3 hour rescue.  Apparently he was up on the solid granite peak.  I don't know how they finally got to him because, as you can see, this is in an extremely rugged area.  To visit the weekly Sunday Stills Challenge, please go to:   http://sundaystills.wordpress.com/
