Daring Helicopter Rescues in Tomales Bay Save Six

A Sonoma County Sheriff's helicopter crew conducted multiple rescues, saving four boaters and two hikers in separate incidents.

The helicopter crew swiftly responded to a capsized boat in Tomales Bay, rescuing four individuals using a long-line technique.
Following the maritime rescue, the same crew saved two hikers trapped by high tide at Alamere Falls later that evening.
Rescued individuals included boaters who had been stranded for approximately 45 minutes and hikers showing signs of cold exposure.
All rescued parties were assessed by medical personnel, though no severe injuries were reported.
The rescues were captured on video and highlighted the crew's readiness and efficiency, having just demonstrated their skills at a local festival.
