Alright,

this party did hit the rock.
00:04
He's okay. He's probably going to need a tow as well.
00:08
The other two vehicles are about two, 300 yards in front of me, so I'm going to have to drive up and check on them.
00:18
Hi, copy. That third party can probably use one of the two tows as well. They're the only two that are actually responding and available.
00:29
Okay,
00:31
since this guy is okay, I'm gonna drive up and check on them. I thought, I heard eight that he's coming out here.

If he can stop with his first vehicle,

that would be appreciated.

Right up the turn at the junction down there there was cones put in the way to come up
02:16
It looks like they're having some sort of a running race here in a little bit
02:20
I came up here but I'm not sure if we're going to be able to get through here in a little bit or not
02:32
Copy that 73, I can't see those cones yesterday, and I know there is a race going on.
02:38
I didn't think there was going to be an impact, so we'll have to look into it and see if we used to shut down part of it for a little while.
02:49
I did pick the middle one out. I mean, they had it pretty, it was spaced out a little bit, but I don't know.
02:58
Copy that, is that right at the little cul-deck there at the very top of Inletload?
