Guardian 2 rescued an injured hiker from Marmot Lake in King County at approximately 5,000 feet. The subject communicated via satellite messaging and reported he was with his dog. He was safely removed from the mountain by our rescue helicopter.

Three teenage hikers became stranded on a narrow ridge near Crosby Mountain, near Skykomish. At 3,900 feet, the remote terrain would have made a ground rescue an overnight mission. King County Air Support responded and safely removed the hikers.

Guardian 1 assisted ground units in locating and apprehending multiple suspects following a dangerous attempt to flee. Using coordinated aerial surveillance, officers were able to safely make arrests without further risk to the community.

There’s nothing quite like the sound of a Huey and the sight of the American flag during the national anthem.
We are proud to participate in Seafair by flying our UH-1 Huey with the American flag during the National Anthem. It’s an honor to be a part of this tradition.
@KCSOAirsupport will be welcoming the facebook.com/share/p/14MDnMH…. This afternoon. Meet the precession at the Jefferson County Airport.
Great video that KCSO produced about our unit. We are proud to serve our community.
