Life as a flight paramedic....part deux
Ramp transfer from the Caravan to the King Air in one of our villages
Our local Alaska National Guard Blackhawk. They will fly us when the weather or runway conditions are too bad for the Caravan.
It was a little icy on this day.
Ok, now for some snow.
And ice.
The Kuskokwim River is used as a highway in the winter when the ice is thick enough.
We often are transported by snowmachine.
Drying and storing firewood for the winter.
Sometimes it gets too cold even for our equipment. This was after about 15 minutes in minus 45 degrees F.
