Great video doc showing SAR on Crestone Needle

I found a great video showing a SAR operation to save two climbers on the Ellingwoo Arete on the Crestone Needle. Really shows all the work the SAR teams do to save us when s**t hits the fan

Wow. Many superlatives come to mind but maybe the best is just simply impressive. Interesting how they conclude the video at the end talking about doing this at night with night vision goggles... That's got to be something else doing that in the dark.
