THOMPSON AND MESERVE’S PURCHASE — Two New Hampshire National Guard Black Hawk helicopters last Saturday assisted New Hampshire Fish and Game with simultaneous rescues of hikers, one in Franconia and the other on Mount Jefferson. The latter ended tragically as the hiker died.
Two phone calls had been placed to 911. One went to Vermont 911, while the other ended up going to Maine 911. Both were eventually transferred to New Hampshire 911.
