    Local volunteers from Teton Valley and Jackson coordinated to reach the patient on foot, about two miles from the North Leigh Canyon trailhead. They used a wheeled litter, which is a specialized stretcher on a mountain bike tire with disc brakes, to navigate the rough terrain. After packaging the woman, rescuers transported her down the trail to a waiting ambulance.
