But <a href=\"https:\/\/dailydispatch.dps.alaska.gov\/Home\/DisplayIncident?incidentNumber=AK21125234\" target=\"_blank\">a Coast Guard helicopter was able to make the trip<\/a> from Nome after overcoming mechanical issues and getting a weather window, said Petty Officer 1st Class Ali Blackburn, a Coast Guard spokesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSafely extracting the group as quickly as possible was a top priority for all of the agencies involved in this operation,\u201d said Austin McDaniel, a troopers spokesperson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blackburn said no injuries were reported at the time of the rescue. Blackburn said the individuals were taken to Nome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alaskapublic.org\/2021\/11\/04\/7-hunters-have-been-stranded-at-a-fish-camp-near-emmonak-for-a-week\/\">KYUK Public Media <\/a>reported the group was composed of hunters from Pilot Station that got stuck outside Emmonak on their way home. Hunters from lower Yukon River villages traditionally travel to the coast in the fall to hunt for seal, without problems. But as they were making their way back, ice began forming on the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four of the hunters are volunteers with the Pilot Station search and rescue team and contacted Emmonak Search and Rescue with an emergency communication device. According to Emmonak Search and Rescue, the hunters provided their location and were directed to the nearest fish camp, KYUK reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McDaniel had said the group stopped at the fish camp cabin for the night on Oct. 28. \u201cWhile they were there overnight, the river iced over. So the ice on the river is too thick to run a boat, and it\u2019s not thick enough to run snowmachine there, and there\u2019s no overland route to get to this spot,\u201d he said Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Troopers said they were notified the individuals were \u201cstuck\u201d at the camp around 5:15 p.m. last Friday and that a supply drop of food and needed medications was made on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Authorities had been pursuing use of a helicopter to pick the individuals up, McDaniel said. Weather conditions between the area and some hub communities, however, had previously hampered efforts to reach the site, he said earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blackburn said the Coast Guard also dropped supplies, including a radio, to the group before the rescue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paul Fancyboy, head of the Pilot Station search and rescue group, had told KYUK he was concerned with how long it was taking for the individuals to be rescued, calling it unacceptable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Coast Guard helicopter was able to make the trip from Nome after overcoming mechanical issues and getting a weather
