"Without the patient trailer, this rescue mission would have required 6 to 10 more personnel and almost two hours to access and carry the victim out. Also, the use of a trailer greatly reduces risk of injuries to rescuers as they're not required to carry patients out while traversing hazards common to the high desert terrain. When dealing with emergencies in remote locations like the rock formations near McKinney Tanks, minutes saved often translates into lives saved!"
