Video? Where?


Should be visible, Lee. I just ran it. It's high-def, so might need some time to download....


I just let my computer sit for about 15 minutes and nothing. Is some kind of link supposed to finally pop up? Or is there a secret password?

My Mommy always said the secret was Please. So, Please.

Still didn't work. I know -- you're testing my patience, aren't you?


Don't know what to tell you, Lee. Here's the original link. Perhaps that will work for you.

That worked, Kurt. The link simply did not show up in the original post. Have others had the same problem?

In any event, it's an awesome story. Those rangers know their stuff, don't they?


Nicely done, and an interesting insight into a rescue.

Re: playing the video - I had give permission to open a pop-up from Traveler on my Winows 7 system before it would play.


Wow. I got vertigo just watching it. Quite the video.
