The reporting partystated that they saw a- body lying across the trail, and did not approach. At 1932 hours, Ranger Brian Densmore and Paramedic Josh Weiner responded to the area via foot. They were able to confirm that the subject was deceased due to obvious decomposition. At the scene they located the reported body in close proximity to the social trail. While investigating the area, they located a second body, 100 - 200' south/above the first body. Both bodies appeared to be in the same state of decomposition, and had trauma associated with a fall from the rim. Due to darkness and steep terrain, responders left the area with plans to return the following morning. This was done in consultation with the Coconino County Medical Examiner's Office. On October 02, 2018 at 0900 hours a team of investigators and SAR technicians traveled to the area on foot. ISB Special Agents Oakes, Hardin, and Confer and Rangers Barton and Baird completed a crime scene investigation, and packaged the bodies in body bags and a helicopter net. After concluding the investigation at 1600 hours, rain, fog, and low clouds prevented the flying of aircraft for extraction. Rescuers hiked out, and the bodies remained at the location over night and a plan was made to return in the morning during better weather conditions. Incident Command was transferred from L. Hodgson to R. McDonald­ O'Lear. On October 03, 2018 at 1000 hrs, a briefing was conducted at South Rim Helibase. Helicopter Crewmember J. Sarabia hiked into the site to hook the sling lo;:id. Helicopter SPA extracted the bodies via longline and transported them to the South Rim Helibase. At 1100 hours, the bodies were transported toStation 1, and left in the custody of SA Oakes. The bodies were picked up by the Coconino County Medical Examiner's Office. At 1200 hours, Unmanned Areaial System (UAS) operators Eric Graff, and Brian Hakansan responded to Second Trailview. They conducted a UAS search of the fall line above the recovery site. All times are approximate. End Report. -- N(1t1u11.-1I r-->,u k St·r vie,: ,....- .:.....:�:-.:...
