I'm just about two or 3 min out at this time.
04:11
Sample.

If you don't have any luck, I'll blow my horn down there and see if they hear it or anything.

06:08
Break.
06:12

Ten four. If you will have either Linwood or the rescue squad put in at Rio, they can take that back up the river and go around the bend and should be able to get to them.
06:32
Linwood Green Rescue Squad.
06:38
Hart County has those requesting if you can put in at Rio Bridge.

Ten four, Bowling Green.
07:06
It's pretty steep going down into the river here.
07:11
I'm just going to sit here and mark where they're at roughly.

We can get somebody in the river to go up and get them.
