00:00:02.961 --> 00:00:05.214 align:center line:-2
The great outdoors can be
not-so-great if you wander off

00:00:05.214 --> 00:00:07.925 align:center line:-2
into the woods during
a harsh Canadian winter.

00:00:07.925 --> 00:00:10.677 align:center line:-1
Luckily, we have groups

00:00:10.677 --> 00:00:13.347 align:center line:-2
like the Ground Search and
Rescue Team at 4 Wing Cold Lake.

00:00:19.603 --> 00:00:22.397 align:center line:-2
They showed me exactly
how I'd be rescued

00:00:22.397 --> 00:00:24.566 align:center line:-2
if something like this
was to happen to me.

00:00:24.566 --> 00:00:27.277 align:center line:-1
During the scenario we set up,

00:00:27.277 --> 00:00:31.323 align:center line:-2
I've lost my way out in
the cold Alberta wilderness.

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:34.868 align:center line:-1
After some searching,

00:00:34.868 --> 00:00:37.579 align:center line:-2
part of the Ground Search
and Rescue team finds me

00:00:37.579 --> 00:00:40.332 align:center line:-2
and provides any immediate care
at the scene.

00:00:40.332 --> 00:00:44.002 align:center line:-2
I'm provided shelter and
a warm blanket by fireside

00:00:44.002 --> 00:00:47.214 align:center line:-2
while the crew administers
any critical first aid.

00:00:50.050 --> 00:00:52.261 align:center line:-2
Most people don't realize
how important it is

00:00:52.261 --> 00:00:55.138 align:center line:-2
to stay hydrated in situations
of extreme cold.

00:00:55.138 --> 00:00:58.058 align:center line:-1
Remember to drink water.

00:00:58.058 --> 00:00:59.893 align:center line:-1
The team then employs a GPS,

00:00:59.893 --> 00:01:03.522 align:center line:-2
sending a signal to the
snowbulance of our whereabouts.

00:01:03.522 --> 00:01:06.358 align:center line:-2
The snowbulance is a
miniature-sized ambulance

00:01:06.358 --> 00:01:08.986 align:center line:-1
towed by a snowmobile.

00:01:08.986 --> 00:01:10.821 align:center line:-2
When the unit is close,
a canister is deployed

00:01:10.821 --> 00:01:14.199 align:center line:-2
which seeps red smoke
as an additional signal

00:01:14.199 --> 00:01:17.619 align:center line:-2
for the medical unit
to follow and find us.

00:01:17.619 --> 00:01:19.830 align:center line:-2
When the snowbulance
arrives on-scene,

00:01:19.830 --> 00:01:21.582 align:center line:-2
the team transfers me
into the red pod

00:01:21.582 --> 00:01:23.709 align:center line:-2
and hands over any
important medical notes

00:01:23.709 --> 00:01:27.171 align:center line:-2
on my injuries
to the medical team.

00:01:27.171 --> 00:01:29.590 align:center line:-1
Then off we go.

00:01:29.590 --> 00:01:32.718 align:center line:-1
Back to the safety of 4 Wing!
