Anyone else think about starting a rival rescue service? Put up signs right next to those offering to undercut the price of a rescue? "Bargain Basement Rescue Service - We Might Not Get You Out Alive but Your Family Won't Have to Pay a Lot for Your Body!"

I'm still trying to figure out how anyone gets trapped in Bluejohn (excluding a giant rock landing on your arm). To bad there is no cell service in Bluejohn....

SAR: Hello, how can we assist you?

Stranded Hikers: We are trapped in Bluejohn Canyon, send help and a copter ASAP!!!

SAR: What seems to be the problem?

Stranded Hikers: Our ropes don't reach the bottom of the rappel!!!

SAR: Can you turn around and hike back out the way you entered the canyon?

Stranded Hikers: YES!

SAR: OK, than do that.

:cool2:
