Rescue crews from Glendale, Peoria, and Phoenix used a unique device to rescue a hiker from the Thunderbird conservation park Thursday.
Glendale Fire Department has not yet released a reason for the rescue call and the condition of the woman is not yet known.
Fire crews used what is called a 'big wheel' unit to bring the woman down the mountain. Firefighters describe it as a rescue basket mounted on an all terrain 'big' wheel. Several firefighters hold onto the basket while they bring the victim down the mountain.
