The Snohomish County Helicopter Rescue Team shared this video of a recent nighttime rescue.

A hiker was seriously injured on Mount Pugh. Heavy clouds prevented the team from lifting out the hiker during the day. The weather cleared at night, though, and the team was able to lift out the hiker using night-vision goggles.
