JACKSON, Wyo. — Teton County Search and Rescue was dispatched to help an injured woman just minutes after shed hunt season started Sunday.

The call came in at 6:18 a.m., according to a Facebook post from TCSAR. A woman had fallen from her horse up Curtis Canyon and possibly broken her leg.

TCSAR “dusted off the wheeled litter and RZR side-by-side” and initiated a ground rescue. The woman was assessed, packaged, and transported on the litter to an ambulance at the trailhead.

The mission was over in two hours and 12 minutes.
