    If her name was Ashton it was his baby mama. Crazy story. Good campfire story of how it went down.

    I don't think that was her they were out camping as a family alone and her dad had to drive her out to meet FD to be airlifted. She said it was the first and last time she ever went off-roading lol

    So Gabe (can't remember screen name) and I where like fuck it-super run. When cruise out exhausted and drive a little then call it early. I had like 4 beers just tired. Gabe hit it hard but that comes put later. So about 2 am I'm sleeping in my excursion and something hits the side with a weak help, help, help. I open the door to see a younger dude about 6 ft 210 asking for help. I'm like wtf is this. So I ask what he needs and he says a ride. I said cool. I was just in my drawers but it was like 30 degrees outside. I threw on some shorts and grabbed a hoody. Yelled out from inside if he wanted a beer he said no. I asked you want anything? I have powerade? He said yeah. I was like oh. Must be hurt or tired. I climb out he is dirt head to toe and his shirt is half off. Like he is either slinging the rock or one arm doesn't work. So I'm rocking barefoot and board shorts just got out of my cozy ass den and go to my truck. Dude can't open the powerade. I start thinking this is bad so I grabbed a phone. So I open the drink and said were the fuk did you come from. He said he wrecked a quad and he is hurt. He started walking on adrenaline and walked toward light. I'm like what light. He points (Gabe was so drunk he left his tent light on when he passed out, it was no moon and only maybe 3 camps in the whole area). I was like cool get in. So dude can't get in. So I basically picked him up. Fuck me right! So I start talking to him just to see if he is OK and try to find camp. The heat starts kicking in and he asks if I have a phone. I said yeah you wanna call camp? He said no you need to call 911 I'm hurt bad. I said cool man. So I called and said I have a 20 yo that has a collar bone issue, wrecked, knows his name, I don't know him, blah blah. I'm heading toward wheeler he is already in my truck. They said cool. I hang up. I start getting info to help find the quad for his people and more info to tell his people where he went. So he was partying with his group and this chick says I PREGNANT WITH YO BABY so he went for a cruise. Never been to super before and went to high ground to find camp. Literally just rolled off. He tried to start the quad and it started but wouldn't move so he took off. I was like OK. Rock dirt or sand. He said rock to sand. Then he asked if I could call 911 again. I was like why. He said I need a helicopter I'm not going to make it. I'm like fuck man. So I call back and ask for a helo. I got the same operator and said dude has lung issues he ain't gonna make. I'm rolling wheeler in an explorer I'll stop when I see lights but it ain't good. She was like OK. So I get to the firetruck and ambulance and they spine board him from my trucks front seat. The paramedic said he is bad. I said I called for airlift. He said we have to do that the operator won't take your word for it. We look up and see the helo. He was Iike. Huh first time for everything. So they give Ole boy like 6 iv taps so once he hits the air they can pump him full. I asked where he was going they said palm Springs or San Diego. I said he is from El Cajon San Diego would be cool. He said not our choice. I hung around long enough they said palm Springs. So now the hunt for the camp. Like I said maybe 10 camps total and I'm looking for a 70s Chevy and a Honda Accord. So I find a Honda Accord so I'm like got to be it. Pull up and like a 90 lbs pit going ape shit. I just wait and a girl pops out. I said your boy was just airlifted. She kept denying then I dropped the preggo line and she flips. She the preggo. Awesome. Full panic. I said I'm camped right there come get me tomorrow. Next morning the whole crew comes over and gabe and I grab 2 of them and start the search. We see a set of tracks going off the cliff. No skids or spinning. Just rolled off. So during this time we find out he has the keys to the Honda. I said he told me he emptied his pockets looking for a phone. Awesome. We find the quad. Start looking and see the phone and keys. Dude called me later and had compound fractured collar bone, jacked shoulder and broken ribs that punctured his lung. Doctor told him he was within 30 minutes when he got to the hospital. @JoBroTACO @desertjunkie760
